Okay. Merci beaucoup.
We have a security response that we would look at in terms of the management of inmates of organized crime within a correctional frame. Right now we have in Canada one extreme special handling unit that is our highest level of security, which is in the Quebec area. Right now perhaps one of the most prolific inmates who is known to organized crime is incarcerated there. This person, from our perspective of looking at the case, still poses a significant risk to the staff and other inmates within the correctional frame and also poses a significant risk of having the capacity to maybe continue to even influence control from within a penitentiary centre. We have placed him and will continue to monitor his case and have always that option available to us for the restricting of security movements at the highest frame.
In addition, as you know, we're structured along levels of security for maximum and medium institutions. Those in themselves have limitations of movement, limitations of capacity to associate, limitations within visits that we can apply at every particular point in time.
You asked about the treatment component. Again, it's an array. We look at each case in terms of individual needs. In terms of the complexities, when you're dealing with organized crime, you have variations across a number of scales. There are some who are absolutely extremely hard-core, committed to their gang, and I think no matter what will never change. I think that's the example we've given. We have others who are maybe wannabes, who maybe want to join just for the sake of being a joiner. We have to look at each one of those in terms of our responsivity. What is it that will stop that? What will discourage the interest to join? We look at the needs across a number of scales. Did somebody join because of a lack of education? Did somebody join because of a lack of employment? Did somebody join because of his hostility scale? Has somebody joined because there are some mental health issues? In each case we do a comprehensive intake assessment of each individual case associated with that as well look at what we can deliver in terms of programs to try to mitigate or dissuade that person from continuing on in those types of processes.
They are often individually based in terms of treatment. We are beginning to do an awful lot of work around the research. I think we heard some testimony here today, certainly from the community, on young children who are looking to join gangs. We've intercepted pictures of visitors coming in where young children are beginning to show gang colours to somehow, I guess, continue in the representation of their family.
So we continue to work on family matters, continue to work with the community on those types of elements.
