Public Accounts Committee

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

9:00 am

Mr. Don Culliton:

Until the middle of last year we had a number of agency nurses because of significant deficits across the estate.

Those vacancies were filled by agencies, but we engaged in a recruitment process in mid-2018 and as far as I can recall we filled all our vacancies at that point and therefore the need for agency nurses diminished significantly.
