Repatriation of Irish Prisoners in the United Kingdom: Irish Council for Prisoners Overseas

Ms Joanna Joyce:
The figure has gone down to four. Our figures change on a frequent basis because people come in and out of prison. At the moment we are working with four Irish prisoners in South America and Central America. We are not in contact with all of their families as some families do not wish to have our support. We are in direct contact with those clients.
