The Northen Ireland Prison Service (NIPS) has launched the Strengthening Family Relations Strategy Document.
Launching the strategy, Ronnie Armour, the NIPS Director General said:
“Children must not be punished as a result of a parent being imprisoned. The new facilities will encourage more meaningful visits and I welcome the wider Strategy that recognises the importance of better family links. Positive and stable family relationships are directly linked to less re-offending, through providing greater support we benefit all of society.”
