Will the Leader organise a debate on the Prison Service, a subject about which Senator Bacik has spoken eloquently in the past? It is some time since we had a debate on the service and several changes have occurred in the past several months. I would like the position regarding the development at Thornton Hall to be confirmed. Recent figures showed a rise in the number of people in prison for not paying debts. It is like going back to Dickensian days when other solutions can be found.
