WANDOO
REINTEGRATION FACILITY — YOUNG ADULTS FACILITY CONTRACT —
ANNUAL REPORT 2013–14
1200. Hon ALANNA CLOHESY to the
Attorney General representing the Minister for Corrective Services:
I refer to the 2013–14
annual report of the Wandoo Reintegration Facility's young adults
facility contract.
(1) Of the 55
prisoners in count on 17 October 2014 —
(a) how many were aged 24 or under; and
(b) how many were at Wandoo solely for the
purpose of clinical intervention programs such as Pathways or Think First, and
therefore above the threshold age of 24 years?
(2) Are the clinical intervention programs
Pathways and Think First conducted at any of the other prisons; and, if so,
which prisons?

AnswerView source ↗

On behalf of the Minister for Corrective Services, I thank
the honourable member for some notice
of the question.
(1) (a) There were
54 prisoners aged 24 or under.
(b) One prisoner at Wandoo is above the age
of 24 and is currently undergoing a Pathways program.
(2) Pathways and Think First programs are
offered at other prisons. Pathways programs are scheduled for delivery at
Acacia Prison, Albany Regional Prison, Bandyup Women's Prison, Boronia
Pre-release Centre for Women, Bunbury Regional Prison, Casuarina Prison,
Eastern Goldfields Regional Prison, Greenough Regional Prison, Karnet Prison
Farm, West Kimberley Regional Prison and Wooroloo Prison Farm.
Think First programs are scheduled for delivery at Acacia Prison, Albany
Regional Prison, Bandyup Women's Prison, Boronia Pre-release Centre for
Women, Bunbury Regional Prison, Casuarina Prison, Eastern Goldfields Regional
Prison, Greenough Regional Prison, Karnet Prison Farm, Roebourne Regional
Prison and Wooroloo Prison Farm.
I think the only difference is that one is at West Kimberley and the
other is at Roebourne.
