I'm not familiar with all the details of their concerns. I think the concerns with a lack of consultation are there.
In our experience, there were two differing opinions from correctional officers when we were visiting the institutions with the humans rights committee. One was the official position, and one was often the position of those working on the ground—if you will, the boots on the ground—in the institutions. Many of them supported a more robust community involvement and less of the restrictive measures that potentially would be imposed by these intervention units without the oversight.
I would say that it depends on who you ask. I would encourage you to visit those institutions and seeing what's actually happening.
