Prison toilet flushes restricted

6 June 2007

Queensland prisoners will be restricted to three-minute showers and six toilet flushes a day under a new state government plan to save water.

Corrective Services Minister Judy Spence today said showers were restricted to four minutes - the same as south-east Queenslanders on level five water restrictions - but there were plans to tighten water use.

"For example, the new Brisbane Correctional Centre that will open later this year, formerly Sir David Longland (jail), will have new technology installed whereby prisoners will only get a three-minute shower," she told State Parliament.

"After three minutes the water will automatically cut off.

"With the new technology they will only be allowed six flushes a day.

"That will be the new regime for prisons in Queensland."

However, Nationals MP Rob Messenger told parliament prisoners were still wasting water and had unlimited time for showers.

He said prisoners often turned their hot water taps on to create steam in their cells to keep warm on cold nights.
