The Minister of Justice Jean-Jacques Urvoas made a point on the penitentiary question in the prefecture. Is there room to build an institution for short sentences? "It was not the diagnosis that was made" during his meeting with the judicial authorities. Should we build a small establishment to prepare for release from prison? “It is a mortgage that must be worked on” to allow “a smooth reintegration”. Do we need a remand center? The question is being studied since “the imprisoned Saint-Martinois represent a cost for society and for the community”. The prison administration will have to assess whether incarceration in Saint-Martin is ultimately less expensive than imprisonment outside the territory, according to the minister. _EH
