I may not have made myself clear earlier. Given the reduction in prisoner numbers it is likely, following the Minister's previous remarks, that the saving is based on that. With regard to diversionary programmes and or policing of the availability of illegal drugs, as opposed to any methadone treatment, within the Prison Service are there any programmes the Minister would like to highlight?
