Requests to Minister, Commissioner or Official Visitors
169 Requests to Minister, Commissioner or Official Visitors
(1) On receiving an oral or written request by an inmate for permission to
speak with the Minister, the Commissioner or an Official Visitor about a
specific matter, a correctional officer must refer the request to the governor
without unnecessary delay.
(2) On receiving an oral or written request by an
inmate for permission to speak with the Minister, the Commissioner or an
Official Visitor about a specific matter, whether directly from the inmate or
referred by a correctional officer, the governor must make a written record of
the fact that the request has been made.
(3) If the request relates to a
matter that the governor can dispose of personally, the governor-- (a) must
dispose of the matter, as soon as practicable, by taking the action the
governor considers appropriate (being action that may consist of or include
making a recommendation to the Commissioner), and
(b) must make a written
record of the action taken (being a record that must include particulars of
any recommendation to the Commissioner), and
(c) must ensure the record is
available for inspection by the person with whom the inmate wished to speak
when that person next attends the correctional centre (if that person so
requires).
(4) If the request relates to a matter that the governor cannot
dispose of personally, the governor must ensure the person with whom the
inmate wished to speak is informed of the request when that person next
attends the correctional centre.
(5) Despite any other provision of this
Regulation, a Category AA male inmate, a Category 5 female inmate, an extreme
high risk restricted inmate or a national security interest inmate is not
entitled, and is not to be permitted, to speak with an Official Visitor.
