"It has become clear that the drugs which circulated in prisons
were mainly brought in by prisoners, and the number of staff involved is
very small," Mr. Garner said.
"However, due to the devious ways by which the drugs have been
coming into the institutions, it has led to the mistaken belief that all
these drugs were brought in by prisons staff. This, we now know, is not
true," he added.
Mr. Garner said the initial results of his determined effort to
prevent dangerous drugs getting into the Department's institutions are
obviously proving successful, and the long-term benefits should be rewarding.
