| Abstract | At the end of 2015/2016, the Department of Correctional Services (DCS) had a total inmate population of 161 984i. Out of this number, 45257 are un-sentenced inmates. 4193 inmates were females and 157791 were males. It is evident that the DCS is still faced with the challenge of overcrowding, which undermines its attempts at rehabilitationii. As a result, some inmates leave correctional service centres with few skills that equip them for social and community reintegration. |
