Vol. 498 No. 4

Written Answers. - Prison Searches.

Jim Higgins

Question:

367 Mr. Higgins (Mayo) asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the circumstances in which two mobile phones have recently been found at Portlaoise prison; if the investigation has been concluded; and, if so, the out-come in this regard. [27210/98]

I can confirm that two mobile phones were found recently in Portlaoise Prison. The circumstances leading to their recovery are confidential for security reasons and I am sure that the Deputy will understand that I cannot respond to this part of his question. An investigation into the matter is ongoing and it would not be appropriate for me to comment at this stage.
