"In a further tightening of security at Queensland prisons, Corrective Services Minister Judy Spence last month announced a total ban on mobile phones from all correctional centers. Spence said Queensland was one of the first in Australia to introduce a legislative ban on mobile phones in corrections centers in July 2001. The total ban means no one will be authorised to take a mobile phone into a jail."
