Vol. 39 No. 10

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Diet in Maryboro' Prison.

asked the Minister for Justice whether a drastic alteration in the scale of diet for prisoners in Maryboro' Prison has been made; and, if so, if he will state the grounds for this change, and whether any exception has been made in the case of Con Healy and Seán Hogan, whose state of health requires such consideration.

Certain alterations were recently made in the dietary scales for convict prisoners. These alterations were made as the scales previously in operation were found to be extravagant and wasteful. One of the convicts referred to in the question i provided with a special diet prescribed by the Medical Officer. The other convict referred to receives an extra ration of bread.
