Minister of Homeland Security, Labour and Technology Ali Ihusaan announced that work has begun on the government's One Prison concept, aimed at providing a long-term solution to challenges facing the prison system. Speaking at a certificate-awarding ceremony by the Institute for Correctional Studies (ICOST) of the Maldives Correctional Service (MCS), he said infrastructure and space constraints are expected to be resolved within two years. The government is also working to amend laws so that time spent in rehabilitation programs can count toward an inmate's release, encouraging rehabilitation and reintegration. The One Prison concept involves developing a central prison facility to address issues of operating prisons on inhabited islands and near tourism areas.
