2.2.5 Reporting on their 2010/11 performance the JICS had registered its concern that the DCS might be applying its transfer-policy irregularly, in a punitive and preventative manner, subverting rehabilitation and reintegration objectives. In 2011/12 the concern remained, although the JICS had not investigated the underlying causes, and continues to investigate transfer-related queries on a case-by-case basis. In its 1 April to 30 June 2012 quarterly report, the JICS indicated that most of the transfer requests received for that period, were requests for information and not actual complaints.
