8.14 Judicial Inspectorate for Correctional Services 8.14.1 At the time of the visit the JICS was unfortunately not present to comment on allegations of misconduct on the part of the ICCVs. The Committee does feel however that ICCVs should be screened or vetted and their performance assessed on a regular basis. Furthermore a relationship of mutual cooperation should be encouraged between JICS and DCS officials to ensure that the ICCVs' necessary presence is understood and does not cause unnecessary strain and suspicion.
