Parliamentary Question: Prison Staff
19th November 2002
392. Mr. Gilmore asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the total number of staff approved for each prison and place of detention here; and the categories and number within each category in respect of each institution. [22181/02]Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform (Mr. McDowell): It is not possible, for security reasons, to provide the Deputy with a breakdown of staffing levels in each institution. I can confirm, however, that the overall total authorised staffing for the prisons and places of detention here is 3,378.
