The Department of Justice (the Department) advises that is unable to provide the response in the full level of detail requested without the investment of a significant amount of time and resources. The Department’s corporate systems are not able to isolate the information in the form requested.
However please see tabled paper number for a breakdown of items availabile at several of the prisons.
Please note, this is only for public prisons.
