Campaigner discusses growing number of inmates
Incentivising good behaviour among prisoners is one way to cut the prison population according to a criminal justice campaigner.
Andrew Neilson of the Howard League for Penal Reform has been speaking on the Island at a Positive Action Group meeting.
The Isle of Man Prison at Jurby recently installed portable buildings to increase its capacity in response to a growing number of inmates.
While it's not an issue unique to the Isle of Man, Mr Neilson says some areas have been able to reverse the trend:
Three-week road closure for gas main works
Public expectations for high street services 'a contradiction'
Info Commissioner partially upholds terminal complaint
MGP organisers ACU respond to accusations of 'hollow promises' following rider's death
