7.10 Facilities 7.10.1 The Committee acknowledges the considerable pressure outdated facilities place on the delivery of services to inmates as well as on security within centres. It welcomes the plans to revamp some parts of the Pollsmoor Correctional Centre, and especially the soon to be completed new generation centres referred to above. It is impossible for the DCS to replace all existing prisons with new generation ones, but everything must be done to ensure that maintenance of the existing structures is not neglected. The Committee recommends that the relationship between DCS and Department of Public Works (DPW) be strengthened so that maintenance is done speedily and that on their part, facilities are preserved.
