Please release the Health Services Manual

Sophie Buchanan made this Official Information request to Department of Corrections

The request was refused by Department of Corrections.

From: Sophie Buchanan

Dear Department of Corrections,

I read this in the Office of the Ombudsman’s (2012) report into prison healthcare:

“We note that the Department’s website contains the PSOM, the Community Probation Manual and the Inmate Employment policy. However the Health Services Manual is not available on the website. In the public interest, the inclusion of the Health Services Manual on the website would be beneficial. This matter has been raised with the Department, but the manual has yet to be posted on the Department’s website.”

I cannot find the “Health Services Manual” on your website. Please release the “Health Services Manual” to me.

Best regards,

Sophie Buchanan
