Subject: Official Information request - Conditions of confinement at
Auckland Prison

 

Dear Department of Corrections,

 

I am interested in the conditions of confinement in Auckland Prison
(Paremoremo).

 

My questions are as follows:

1) How many prisoners are kept in their cells for 23-hours a day

2) On average, how many hours per day are prisoners kept in their cells

3) Can prisoners freely interact with one another?

4) Are there restrictions on the number of hours per day that prisoners
can interact?

5) How many prisoners are held in protective segregation?

6) Is segregation used as a means of discipline? If so, how many prisoners
are involuntarily segregated?

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Ti Lamusse
