Ms Caron McCaffrey:
I will give some reassurance around scrutiny. We have an internal audit unit in the Department of Justice and our prisons are subject to regular inspection by internal audit. There is also an audit committee that meets regularly with the Irish Prison Service, at least four times a year, on oversight of financial matters.
