Some opportunities to explore different approaches to segregation were missed,
in my opinion, and the design of some newly built facilities was lacking in
imagination. For example, the NZ $ 100 million project to construct 200 new
remand and at-risk beds at Mount Eden Correctional Facility, a remand prison
in Auckland, resulted in a segregation unit (ISU) the design of which is almost
identical to that of the existing ISU, including the problematic internal yards and
cells with no natural light.
