raise a really important point about the judicial system.

And I was listening to Morning Arda this morning.

What did they say?

About five and a half thousand beds in Irish prisons and about six and a half thousand prisoners in those beds.

We haven't had a new prison built since the population of the country was less than four million and it's now over five million.

So we have needed a new prison for a long time.

That's absolutely true.

We might get into that.

We'll get into more of these issues.

0818 715 815 as well the number.

If you want to give me a call and jump into this conversation about...

About social deprivation, about parental responsibility, about the judicial system.
