The home affairs minister is defending the cuts made to prison education funding.
This is despite the budget dropping by nearly half in the last five years.
Figures were revealed in a House of Keys question for written answer for Juan Watterson, from Onchan MHK Zac Hall.
They showed the budget for education at the prison dropped from a total of £236,000 to £127,000 in five years.
Mr Watterson says it's down to a new approach:
