1.4. At the start of its term in May 2009, the Committee had agreed to six focal areas that have since then informed its oversight activities. Most importantly the Committee agreed to intensify oversight of the DCS' administration and financial management, as weaknesses in that area impact negatively on, amongst others, the implementation of the rehabilitation and reintegration objectives contained in the White Paper and, ultimately, the DCS' ability to ensure that those released from its care do not re-offend. To this end, the Committee receives quarterly financial and administrative reports from the DCS, which are closely scrutinised, in order to timeously detect weaknesses and recommend remedies. The Committee's oversight must therefore be driven by its commitment to ensuring service delivery to both sentenced offenders and remand detainees i.e. humane conditions of incarceration, effective rehabilitation and reintegration programmes, and adequate care and development. The successful delivery of these programmes will ensure that by the time an inmate is released his or her offending behaviour has been "corrected", thus ensuring successful reintegration of offenders, and ultimately increased safety and security.
