Alexander Maconochie Centre—duress alarms

Mr Rattenbury (in reply to a question and a supplementary question by Mrs Jones on Wednesday, 28 November 2018):

ACT Corrective Services (ACTCS) were informed of the specific incident referenced. The incident was a test of the duress alarm and at no time was staff safety compromised.

ACTCS currently have over 70 operational mobile duress units, and these are available for staff at the AMC including Justice Health staff. In the event of a shortfall in mobile duress units, ACTCS does have alternative options. The Government has allocated funding for the procurement of a new Mobile Duress System replacement project due to the fact that the current system is now obsolete, and alarms can no longer be repaired or procured. The current Mobile Duress System is projected for replacement in late 2019.
