Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement
Prisoners' Rights: Discussion with Northern Ireland Prisoner Ombudsman
11:15 am
Mr. Paul Maskey, MP:
Ms McCabe referred to the implementation plan. There are no timeframes because of the step-by-step approach and there are consequences for prisoners within the system. I do not believe that a step-by-step process is good enough, especially when there have been failures within the system. Is it possible that pressure can be put on to ensure that the implementation process is time bound?
