Recommendation 195
195
Manage key OCG operators under enhanced security, segregating them from general prison population
Recommendation
Individuals identified as key OCG operators must be managed under enhanced security protocols and, where possible, segregated from the general prison population to prevent them from exploiting vulnerable prisoners and staff to maintain their “clean profile”. The practice of merely transferring these individuals between prisons, which leads to spikes in violence and drug use in the prison to which they are transferred, is ineffective. (Recommendation, Paragraph 114)
