A new €30 million plan will provide body cameras for prison officers across Ireland’s prison system. Under the rollout, implementation begins in July at Mountjoy Prison. The cameras are then set to be deployed across all prisons following the initial start at Mountjoy. The plan is designed to expand the use of body-worn recording devices for prison staff system-wide, beginning with the first site before broader implementation. The timeline indicates that the roll-out starts in the current year, with the initial phase limited to Mountjoy and subsequent phases covering additional prisons. The reporting from the available sources focuses on the programme’s budget and staged deployment schedule, rather than detailing specific technical specifications, coverage rules, or oversight arrangements. The announcement therefore centers on when the body cameras will be introduced and the order in which prisons will be covered, beginning with Mountjoy in July.
