The State is considering the use of army officers at Portlaoise Prison to deal with the increased security risk of holding Daniel Kinahan.
The Irish Independent is reporting security measures are being reviewed ahead of Kinahan's expected extradition.
He is considered "the greatest flight risk" the prison service has ever dealt with.
The concerns centre around the potential unscheduled transportation of Kinahan as an inmate, in the instance that an armed garda escort is unavailable.
It's believed the introduction of a full time Defence Force presence would allay those concerns.
