Ms Caron McCaffrey:
We would be profiling that from a security perspective. Generally, prisoners are getting a small amount of money from their families to support themselves and tuck shops. The main point I want to make is that previously that money was coming into prisons in cash and postal orders. That is a huge volume of cash to be within a prison system.
