Public Accounts Committee

2017 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 21 - Prisons

9:00 am

Ms Caron McCaffrey:

Regarding the participation rates in our work, training and education services, the Deputy is right to point out that there is capacity within the system. Our commitment is to maximise the rehabilitative facilities available within our prisons. The figures are being impacted by staff shortfalls. We are not at full staffing levels.
