"Prison staff need more training and support of they are to root out the corruption in their service. News of a study by the Prison Service's anti-corruption unit and the Metropolitan Police blows the whistle on corrupt prison staff. While most prison staff do a good job in difficult circumstances, the presence of even a small number of corrupt officers not only undermines their efforts but also wrecks public confidence in a service with a duty to maintain safety and security. In private prisons, not yet under review, things may be even worse given National Audit Office concerns about high staff turnover and lack of experience."
