View the Report on an Inspection of Limerick Prison

In response to this Report, the Irish Prison Reform Trust has issued a statement  to the media (17 Jan 2011) in which they note:

"Although the reports point to serious deficiencies in Limerick Prison, IPRT believes it is significant that an action plan to address the problems has been put in place; moreover, that is has been made public immediately indicates a positive move towards increased accountability. IPRT also welcomes the Minister for Justice’s unequivocal acknowledgment of the problems at the prison."

An Action Plan is being put in place to deal with the serious deficiencies which still exist at the prison.   
The Action Plan and related data can be viewed on the Department of Justice website at
