Public Accounts Committee

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

9:00 am

Ms Caron McCaffrey:

I agree with the Chair. There are some issues relating to relying on a locum service. We are considering potentially re-employing our own doctors but the number of directly employed doctors is far exceeded by the number of locum doctors we have working. To reiterate, we have GP sessional services in all of our prisons.
