Targets for public and private prisons

Alex Harris made this Official Information request to Department of Corrections

The request was successful.

From: Alex Harris

Dear Department of Corrections,

On 27 April 2012 Radio New Zealand reported that Serco had failed to meet its targets for the management of Mount Eden Prison ("Prison operator falls short", RadioNZ, 27/4/12). I would like to request the following information under the Official Information Act

* What targets does Serco have to meet for the operation of ACRP (this should be in its contract, which was tabled in parliament, but does not seem to be available on your website)
* What targets does the Department of Corrections have to meet for the operation of equivalent facilities?

I would prefer to receive an electronic response. Queries about this request will be automatically forwarded to me by the fyi.org.nz website.

Yours faithfully,

Alex Harris
