Is it envisaged that there will be a substantial change in the numbers? If we review this Act in, say, two years' time, will the Minister of State and his Department envisage that there would, at that stage, have been a number of prisoners transferred into this jurisdiction from other jurisdictions? In terms of where we stand with the United Kingdom being outside the European Union, how many prisoners from the United Kingdom would be envisaged? Would it be expected that they would be the majority?
