143 men and 17 lucky women are now staying at the Hume Hilton.

143 men + 17 women = 160 prisoners, slightly above 50% of the 300 offender capacity.
According to their website, “Approximately 50% of the accommodation is in 5 bedroom cottages. There are no female cells. The self-contained cottages are for lower security prisoners.”
How many of these prisoners are deemed low security risk, how many not, and as a result, how many of the cottages are unused?
