Irish Prison Service

The Irish Prison Service is a government agency responsible for managing and operating prisons in Ireland. Its main role is to securely detain individuals who have been convicted of crimes, while also providing rehabilitation and support to help them reintegrate into society. The service maintains safety and security within prisons, ensures fair treatment of inmates, and offers programs aimed at reducing reoffending. It works to balance security with human rights, focusing on public safety, prison staff welfare, and the effective management of the correctional system.
