We find that the officers' compensation levels are sufficient to allow the prisons to meet personnel needs at the present time, but we generally agree with other administration proposals to increase management control in prisons.

Created to closely oversee internal affairs investigations within state correctional entities, the bureau underwent rapid development in its first six months, setting up offices, hiring and training an expert staff of attorneys and investigators, and participating in the development of key policies and procedures affecting the department's internal affairs and employee disciplinary systems. By the end of the current semi-annual reporting period-after its first full year of operations - the bureau has not only proven its value as an able independent monitor of those processes, but through its work has also amply demonstrated the need for continued vigilance to ensure that internal affairs investigations are carried out with a high degree of integrity and that the discipline meted out is sound, consistent, and just.
