The Office of the Ombudsman is an independent Statutory Body under the aegis of the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform.
I am advised by the Office that while it is difficult to accurately predict the number of complaints that may arise, the estimated cost of the Office of the Ombudsman establishing an independent complaints process for the Prison Service is approximately €660,000 per annum.
