(2) There is no limit on the number of visits remanded may have. Visiting hours are between 9 and 11 am and 1.10 and 4.30 pm daily. The norm is for remanded to have supervised contact visits. Non-contact visits are used for a minority of cases when the Superintendent considers they are necessary for the good order of the Remand Centre or where special conditions apply to the Fernandes (such as initially for those on charges against the person).

All remanded have access to unlimited legal visits and there is no restriction on phone calls relating to welfare or legal matters. Remanded may also make a reasonable number of personal phone calls each day.
