I am informed that two former governors are currently employed to carry out business process reviews in the Irish Prison Service. One person has been employed since September 2017 and another since February 2018 on salaries of approximately €40,000 and €30,000 per annum, pro rata. Both persons were employed on 12 month contracts, with an option to extend for an additional limited period on the basis of their substantial experience in managing financial and administrative systems in the Prison Service.
