The prison tours have been arranged to ensure the International Corrections and Prisons Association (ICPA) delegates have an opportunity to visit Victoria’s prisons and observe first-hand Victoria’s contemporary prison system and the manner in which it manages operational risk. ICPA members are encouraged to view details of Victoria’s prisons by accessing Corrections Victoria’s website: http://www.corrections.vic.gov.au/ It is intended that 13 of the State’s 14 prisons (including the Judy Lazarus Transition Centre) will be available to tour on Friday 30 October 2015 and a number of these tours will provide delegates with an opprotunity to enjoy a number of Victoria’s popular tourist attractions. It is anticipated that ICPA delegates will only be able to participate on one tour arranged on this day. The majority of the tours will be conducted between 0800 hours to 1730 hours on this day, commencing from a location in the heart of the city. The following table provides an overview of the schedule of tours. Approximately 280 delegates are able to be accommodated on the attached schedule of tours (assuming a minimum of 20 delegates on each tour).

Prisons, once regarded as a core responsibility of the public sector, have not been quarantined from this process. In Australia, the state’s monopoly of correctional services ended in 1990 with the opening of the first privately operated prison in the northern state of Queensland. Now, nearly three decades later, Australia has the highest proportion of prisoners in privately managed prisons in the world. This paper analyses the experience of one Australian state, Victoria, which has made the most extensive use of a range of privatisation mechanisms to finance, build and manage that state’s prison system. Taking an historical perspective and drawing upon publicly available documents, the paper traces the evolution of prison management in Victoria from a traditional bureaucratic model in which the state had complete responsibility to one in which the private sector now has a major role.

The key functions of the Authority are to: • identify opportunities to improve the delivery and integration of government services and report on service delivery outcomes and standards; • promote high standards of integrity and conduct in the public sector; • strengthen the professionalism and adaptability of the public sector; and • promote high standards of governance, accountability and performance for public entities. The Authority seeks to achieve its charter by working closely and collaboratively with public sector departments and agencies. contact us at the State Services Authority Email: [email protected] Phone: (03) 9651 1321 Fax: (03) 9651 0747 Postal Address: 3 Treasury Place Melbourne 3002 www.ssa.vic.gov.au © Copyright State Government of Victoria State Services Authority 2012 contents executive summary 1 acronyms 5 1 introduction 7 1.1 terms of reference 7 1.2 review methodology and scope 7 1.3 relationship with other reviews 8 2 background 9 2.1 Department of Justice 9 2.2 Corrections Victoria 9 2.3 community corrections 10 2.4 prisons in Victoria 11 2.5 prisoner placement and categories of prisoners

  • PAEC – Inquiry Into the Victorian Government's Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic
    PAEC – Inquiry into the Victorian Government's Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic HEARING, 26 August 2020 Questions on Notice taken by Dr Emma Cassar, Commissioner, Corrections Victoria (1) Verified transcript, page 22: Ms VALLENCE: Thank you so much, Mr Radford. I would like to pass my questions now to Dr Cassar, Corrections Commissioner. Commissioner, in total how many days of lockdown have been served in Victorian prisons during the COVID-19 pandemic? Dr CASSAR: Thanks, Ms Vallence. I do not have those figures in front of me, but I am happy to take that on notice. QoN Response: As lockdowns are applied selectively there is no relevant metric for the total number of days prisons have been subject to lockdown. For example, a particular unit at a prison may go into lockdown in response to a symptomatic prisoner being moved to quarantine or for contact tracing purposes. Lockdowns have assisted with the safe management of the risk of COVID-19 since March. It has been used on these occasions; The Melbourne Assessment Prison, Metropolitan Remand Centre and Port Phillip Prison commenced half day lockdowns across several units in late March 2020 to support physical distancing across the prisons. Loddon Prison was locked down for one day on 3 April 2020. Ravenhall, Hopkins Correctional Centre, Langi Kal Kal, Barwon Prison, Fulham and Loddon were in lockdown from 21 July 2020. All but Fulham and Ravenhall returned to normal operations on 23 July 2020. Fulham returned to normal operations on 24 July; Ravenhall returned to normal operations on 25 July 2020.
