I can advise the Deputy that the concerns of the family in relation to the person referred to have been brought to the attention of the Governor in St Patrick's Institution. I understand too that arrangements are in place there and indeed in all institutions for dealing with such matters. The Deputy may also wish to note that the Samaritans provide support to prisoners in St Patrick's Institution and are available to meet with them in this regard.
