Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Penal Reform: Jesuit Centre for Faith and Justice

9:00 am

Mr. Eoin Carroll:

Since prison sizes are so large, a facility would have to be located in an annex next to one of our current prisons or purpose built. If one examines the Mountjoy Prison site, one might say the Training Unit could have been turned into a therapeutic community. We found out in recent weeks that it was to be redeveloped for use by older prisoners.
