Michael Ring
Ceist:448 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the reason a settled traveller is being discriminated against by making him serve his prison sentence in Fort Mitchel, Spike Island, in view of the fact his mother is unable to visit him; and if this person could be transferred to Caslterea, Loughan House or to any prison facility closer to Mayo in order that his family can visit.
