5.3.2 Oversight visits to correctional centres, JICS reports and complaints received from inmates and officials have made clear that many correctional centres are in need of various degrees of maintenance. The DCS has indicated that the fact that the maintenance of government owned property resides with the DPW created challenges as far as addressing its maintenance needs. The DCS-DPW Service Level Agreement is long overdue, and should be finalised as a matter of urgency, as poorly maintained correctional centres, do not only impact on the DCS' ability to humanely detain inmates, but also pose a security risk.
