Additionally, the males in prison outnumbered the females throughout the timeframe.

After reaching a dip in 1931 with around 10000 men, the number soared slightly and accounted for 2000 in 1951. In 1971, the figure rocketed and reached the peak at the final year of the timeframe with approximately 45000 people.
