HIQA Inpsection Report on Oberstown Detention Centre: Discussion
1:30 pm
Ms Eva Boyle:
I first visited Oberstown in 2014. I saw change when I visited again this year and, while the process has not been completed, I certainly saw progress on many fronts. In terms of the development of policy initiatives and completing research about the profile of young people, this gives a greater understanding of what children need in terms of placement planning. While these are works in progress, I have certainly seen an improvement.
