Written answers

I propose to take Questions Nos. 297 to 299, inclusive, together.

I am advised by the Irish Prison Service that it conducts an analysis of the snapshot of the prison population on the last day of each month. Accordingly, an analysis of the snapshot of the prison population was conducted on the 30 November, 2015 and this analysis has been used to provide the information requested by the Deputy. The information is set out in the table.
