2.2.4 The JICS' comments regarding the positive impact efficient management of facilities has on mitigating the effects of overcrowding, are noted. Where inmates are allowed to spend a considerable part of their day participating in work, development, recreational or rehabilitation programmes, conditions could, regardless of the level of overcrowding, be described as good. 2.2.5 In relation to the roll-out of development, work and education programmes, the JICS found that, in general, infrastructure and very expensive equipment were underutilsed. In addition, major discrepancies in the distribution of personnel existed from one correctional centre to another. The JICS recommends that in relation to education programmes for example, resources should be pooled at those centres that had the necessary infrastructure. Given the DCS' major challenges in delivering programmes to inmates, the JICS further recommends a more formalised approach to making use of the services of the various non-governmental, faith-based, etc organisations that are providing services at about 82% of correctional centres.
