The Castlereagh Councillor said: “Today’s visit has been very useful. We have heard a lot about conditions in the prison and I would urge the government to keep an eye on this issue to ensure that the highest standards are maintained.
“I have previously been in contact with the prison’s governor and I am pleased to have had the opportunity to visit the prison today.
“I would like to thank the prison staff for their time, and I look forward to being further involved on this issue.”
