With over 3800 persons in our care, efforts to contain and manage the spread of COVID-19 within the walls of the prisons are seeing the production of masks for every prisoner, well underway.
Within two days, approximately 1000 masks were produced. They are being manufactured at Port of Spain Prison, Women's Prison, Maximum Security Prison and Carrera Convict Prison for distribution to ALL institutions.
Without compromising the safety and security of staff and charges, we continue to effectively adjust our daily operations best suited to contain and manage the spread of the virus.
