Corradino prison is to have two directors, one responsible for operations and the other focused on the rehabilitation of prisoners, a Home Affairs Ministry spokesman said.

The latter, a correctional director, will possibly be a foreigner experienced in the matter.

This structure will ensure the Corradino Correctional Facility will live up to its name and offer a structured correctional and reformative element.

This two-director structure was proposed by Home Affairs Minister Manuel Mallia following consultation and research.

“A prison needs to ensure that the daily operation is managed efficiently and that inmates are being offered correctional services. We found that you can’t find that mix in one person,” the spokesman said.
