In the case of these offenders, we detected a lack of mental health services, particularly as concerns personnel. The positions exist but they are vacant.
Moreover, Correctional Service Canada uses segregation cells to try to manage the offenders who have mental health issues. This is not an adequate environment to manage this type of person. There are vacant positions that must be filled so that Correctional Service Canada can have the necessary staff to provide these services. It is not appropriate either that Correctional Service Canada uses segregation cells to manage the women who suffer from these problems.
