5.1.1 The DCS' attempts at realising the rehabilitation and reintegration objectives are undermined by its many administrative challenges. Regular administrative hearings will be held to ensure that these challenges are reported on as they occurred. 5.1.2 The DCS' high expenditure on consultants and outsourced services remains a cause for serious concern especially in cases where core functions such as security are being outsourced. The controversial nutrition contract sees millions being spent on a service that, with the necessary management, the DCS could easily perform itself. The Committee looks forward to the outcome of the soon to be embarked upon feasibility study on the most cost-effective way of providing nutritional services.
