Madam, - It has been known for some time that if you are imprisoned in Ireland, the conditions you'll face will be more severe if you are male. We recently also learned that if you're female, you're very likely to be given early release, in effect getting a reduced sentence. The result? Eoin Carroll (November 24) and others use this disclosure as an opportunity to call for even fewer women to be sent to jail. Are some people more equal than others? - Yours etc,
