Prison Accommodation
4:00 pm
Jonathan O'Brien (Cork North Central, Sinn Fein)
To be clear, will part of the remit of the new policy review group the Minister is establishing be to examine existing prison structures and the possibility of expanding within those confines even, for instance, in terms of Castlerea Prison where there is a good deal of open space? We could examine the possibility of doing something similar to what was done in the Six Counties where they put in temporary accommodation for low risk offenders. Will that be part of its remit?
