Prisons inspector hits out at 'inhumane' conditions
A scathing report into the Irish prison system was finally released tonight after being delayed by the Department of Justice for one year.
In it, the Inspector of Prisons Dermot Kinelan attacked the continued inhumane conditions in Mountjoy prisons, civil service bureaucracy, the lack of counsellors for sex offenders and the ’mantra of secrecy’ in the Department of Justice.
