I am advised by my officials in the Irish Prison Service that there are no records of files being destroyed in Portlaoise prison in the manner referred to by the Deputy.
Given the timeframe involved, there are no staff available to discuss the inference made. I would ask that if the Deputy has any information to confirm that files were destroyed in the manner referred to, he should contact the Director General of the Irish Prison Service with this information and consideration will be given to same.
