I welcome the deputation. Perhaps they could clarify one or two points. If a prisoner has a difficulty, what has the Northern Ireland Prisoner Ombudsman put in place in order that he can contact the office directly? Many people, because of reading and writing issues, may be afraid to go through the process. Is there an open door for them to contact the office immediately?
