Prison bosses have been instructed to let pagan inmates keep twigs in their cells...to use as wands. 
<P>
</P><P>
</P><P>Officers have been told to allow prisoners to collect and decorate the twigs which they need for their rituals. 
</P><P>It is the latest in a series of rulings to protect convicts' rights and ensure equality among different faiths. 
</P><P>Followers of other faiths are allowed items such as a prayer mat to allow them to worship. 
</P><P>
The policy regarding pagans was announced by Justice Reform Minister Maria Eagle in a parliamentary answer. 
</P><P>
She said: "Prison service policy is to enable prisoners of different faith traditions, including paganism, to practise their religion. 
</P><P>"Religious artefacts are allowed for relevant faiths within the constraints of good order and discipline. The religious artefacts for pagan prisoners include a flexible twig for a wand."
