Ceist:88 Mr. E. O'Keeffe asked the Minister for Justice the reason proposals for the building of a new women's prison have been abandoned; if her attention has been drawn to the need to have such a facility built for female offenders; if she will ensure that this proposal is dealt with as a matter of urgency; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
