Private prisons are incarceration centers that are run by a for-profit company instead of a government agency. The companies that operate private prisons are paid a per-diem or monthly rate for each prisoner they keep in their facilities. In 2018 18.4% of prisoners in Australia were held in private prisons. Opponents of private prisons argue that incarceration is a social responsibility and that entrusting it to for-profit companies is inhumane. Proponents argue that prisons run by private companies are consistently more cost effective than those run by government agencies.

Yes, but only if they have been successful overseas (excluding 2nd and 3rd world countries)
No, private prisons create perverse incentives for their operators to increase the prison population through lobbying.

What's the difference, it's government funded

I believe under strict federal supervision and monitoring this is acceptable and in some instances it will help cut budgets and use the fellow Australian people assist run the criminal system
@8RJV8JH4yrs4Y
Prisons that are designed for rehabilitation should not but ones designed for punishment should
It does matter whether there are privet services or not
Don’t supervise prisons lock the door shovel food in and leave them to their own devises it’s meant to be a deterrent after all.
@99GYFMH2yrs2Y
