I wish to advise the Deputy that meetings have taken place with the Governors and prison doctors regarding the new procedures for the operation of safety observation cells and close supervision cells. The Irish Prison Service is finalising the policies and procedures which will underpin the future operation of these cells. When this is completed, further meetings will be arranged with all relevant stakeholders operating in prison settings to ensure the new arrangements are uniformly applied.
