In fairness to the Prison Service, this has nothing to do with the individual prison officer who appeared before the committee earlier. Believe it or not, the 11 of us are capable of doing a little research on our own or even of imagining a situation that might exist. My point is that anecdotal evidence suggests that scenarios such as I have described are happening. I ask the service to examine the matter and revert to the committee.
I will return to the issue later.
