I propose to take Questions Nos. 353 and 354 together.

I have requested the information sought by the Deputy from the Irish Prison Service. Unfortunately, it has not been possible to provide the information requested in the time allowed. I will write to the Deputy directly when the information is to hand. 

Question No. 354 answered with Question No. 353.
