Public Accounts Committee

2015 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 21 – Prisons
Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts Special Report No. 93: Annualised Hours of the Prison Service

9:00 am

Mr. Michael Donnellan:

The education and training boards supply 220 full-time equivalent posts to the prison system. That money is part of the Vote for the Department of Education and Skills. We supplement that with materials and equipment. However, the Department of Education and Skills pays for the teachers. It is based on an adult education model.
