Written answers

As the Deputy will be aware, I have requested the Director General of the Irish Prison Service to provide me with a full report on all of the circumstances surrounding the escape of the prisoner (details supplied) during a hospital appointment at Tallaght Hospital on 17th February 2015. I will carefully consider this report when I receive it, including any recommendations it may make in relation to prisoner security.
