Recommendation 5 - The provision of a drug free support unit.
There is a drug free support unit in the Medical Unit. This is a small unit and does not have the capacity to deal with the potential numbers of prisoners who would wish to avail of such a unit. The Governor is actively looking at the possibility of dedicating a greater area of the prison as a drug free support unit. I have been informed that such an area should be identified by 1st July 2011 and will be in operation by 1st September 2011.
