Public Accounts Committee

2017 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 24 - Justice and Equality

9:00 am

Mr. Aidan O'Driscoll:

In 2016, it was 4,425. In 2017, it was 5,096. It 2018, it was 6,106, and so it is going up. We are trying to ensure that we have the necessary space available and we are using the tender process to try to find the relevant level of accommodation. I cannot predict for the Deputy the level of accommodation we will need in 2020, 2021 or 2022. We will try to estimate it. We will try to put the relevant accommodation in place but we cannot be certain of need because we cannot be certain who will turn up at our doorstep.
