I welcome Ms O'Brien, Mr. O'Donnell, Sr. Jo McCarthy and the Churchfield Community Trust. They are very welcome to this committee. I join my colleagues in commending their work, because it is a very valuable and sensible community response to a major issue with prisoners and addiction, whether it is drugs or alcohol. It is important in a modern society that we look at sensible solutions to some of the problems that exist. Before I became a Deputy, I worked in a very disadvantaged area and listening to many of the issues that were mentioned reminds me of my previous day job. My first question goes back to Mr. O'Donnell's remarks that 85% of post-release clients have positive outcomes. When he uses the phrase "moved on" or "moved on to other services", what kind of services would they move on to?
