Prison Accommodation.
4:00 pm
Joe Carey (Clare, Fine Gael)
I believe we should study prison conditions because the Irish prison chaplains recently produced their annual report, which pointed out that one in two inmates of St. Patrick's Institution is illiterate. Does the Minister of State think it is right that this Government presides over a prison system that allows juvenile inmates of St. Patrick's Institution remain illiterate on release?
