We have 10,000 spaces for mental health facilities, including alcohol or drug treatment. There is room for about half the population. If you have 400 staff, you can run about 10,000 spaces. That's about half, but four out of five of our prisoners have mental health problems. I am assuming that when you say “mental health”, you are referring to addiction as well.
