		He says prisons should be about inflicting punishment and he will transform the accommodation into an aged-care facility.
		"We believe that when the prison population is rapidly rising it's the wrong thing to be doing, to be discussing closing a prison," he said.

	AUSTRALIA,
		In the less dense regions of the interior slopes grow red and green kangaroo paws, scented Boronia, waxflowers, bottle brushes, and smaller eucalypti, such as the stringbark, red gum, and ironbark.
		A minority of the prisoners were from the upper class and were serving sentences for crimes such as forgery; these convicts were often able to use their training in business and in government offices.
		In general, however, because they were unskilled and unaccustomed to the rigors of colonial or prison life, the convicts were an exceptionally difficult population with which to build a new society.

		The $14 million Boronia Pre-release Centre for Women in Bentley was based on international best practice, said Justice Minister Michelle Roberts.
		The Boronia Centre was about preparing women for re-entry to the community in terms of their social and work skills and links with their family, friends and the wider community, Roberts said.
		The prison would have a tough anti-drug regime and provide incentives for good behaviour and women would have to work hard at meeting personal, family and community responsibilities, Roberts said.

		He was due that morning, March 20, at the Supreme Court for the continuation of his cocaine trial, and a day later he'd be behind bars — imprisoned in Acacia, Barwon Prison's harsh maximum security unit, to await the jury's verdict.
		While his legal teams had fought since 2001 to defend Mokbel against the charge that he was involved in a cocaine importation, the prosecution case was overwhelming.
