Answer
I am advised that Corrections is unable to provide the number of women assessed as suitable for electronically monitored bail who were unable to be released due to housing constraints, as the Courts determine who is granted bail and who is remanded in custody. I am further advised that the reasons for the Courts declining bail are not provided to Corrections in a reportable manner.
