Drug Free Policy
Loddon was established as a drug-free prison from 1 July 1993. Additional procedures are in place to enforce the drug-free policy and to encourage prisoners to remain drug free.
Prisoners at a drug-free prison must:
- Agree to undergo regular and random urine testing and participate in programs, as decided upon with case managers.
- Any prisoner at Loddon who tests positive to drugs or alcohol or refuses a urine test will be transferred immediately, as will any prisoner who is found guilty of a prison offence related to drugs or alcohol.
