Ms Saoirse Brady:

There was a similar provision in the general scheme of the inspection of places of detention Bill. We raised similar concerns in that regard also about the limiting of this, where one would have a director general who would know the system inside out and their concerns or opinions should be very valid and taken into account. We would question why that is not the case. The transfers to open prisons is something that should also be considered as I know that Senator Ruane brought that issue up.
