Prisoner Numbers
Mr BATTY (Bragg) (14:50): My question is to the Minister for Correctional Services. What is the state's current prison population and prison capacity?
The Hon. R.K. PEARCE (King—Minister for Emergency Services and Correctional Services, Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing) (14:50): I thank the member again for his question. I am advised that our capacity across all prisons for the 2025-26 financial year is sitting around 3,663. That is our capacity. In terms of where we are hovering around on the day-to-day, it is around 3,400 on average.
