Queensland prisoners are being transported across the state on private planes at a cost of $10,000 per flight to taxpayers, whilst jet fuel supplies are critically low. Watch houses in southeast Queensland are operating at over 100% capacity, with some facilities like Beenleigh reaching 156% capacity. Queensland Corrective Services is leaving prisoners in police custody, resulting in police resources being diverted from frontline duties to prisoner management.
