Public Accounts Committee

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

9:00 am

Ms Caron McCaffrey:

To be clear with the Deputy, there are three categories within that area - urgent requirements, specialist knowledge and security considerations. For security reasons, we are not in a position to go to the market. We would not want to have specific information available about the types of equipment we have in operation in the prison system, including about an explosive detection system and the type or model of the system we are using.
