Floyd du Plessis: Corrections Association President on the lack of capacity in the face of the Government's sentencing law reforms
Manage episode 425768888 series 2098280
There’s uncertainty over whether Corrections has capacity, with more prisoners on the way.
The Government's sentencing law reforms will mean longer sentences and up to 1700 more inmates every year.
Corrections Association's Floyd du Plessis says the prisons are currently full, and while there are more beds in theory, they aren't adequately staffed for them yet.
He told Mike Hosking that more applications are coming through for corrections roles, but the number of viable candidates isn't where it needs to be.
du Plessis says there needs to be more focus on getting real people through the door and into employment.
