2.8.2 The Annual Report does not indicate how many natural deaths were reported in 2010/11 financial year. An assessment of the 916 'natural' deaths reported between 1 January and 31 December 2010, revealed that the majority of natural deaths appeared to occur in the first year of incarceration. This was ascribed in part to inmates being admitted with pre-existing conditions which are not identified on admission, or if identified, not treated adequately.
