Protected by reinforced walls and bulkheads as well as double reinforced door. The Akira class vessel has 10 double occupancy cells and 5 single occupancy cells. Newer Akira-classes also have holo emitters fitted in its Brig as part of the EMH program, the emitters can be used as a deterrent against large prisoners by adding extra holographic security personnel to the Brig, also if the Brig needs to be sealed the EMH can still enter and treat the injured. The Double occupancy cells contain 2 beds, a retractable table and chairs, a water dispenser, and a toilet. The 10 double occupancy cells are secured with a level 10-forcefield emitter built into each doorway. Akira-class ships have been fitted with 5 single occupancy cells with multi-phasic shielding fitted into each doorway. This allows Borg to be safely contained therein, if ever necessary. These cells contain a bed, a retractable table and chair, a water dispenser, and a toilet. It falls under the duty of the Senior Brig Officer to maintain the welfare of prisoners and their jurisdiction, who in turn reports to the Chief of Security. Detention Cells The detention cells on board the Akira-Class vessel were used to house large numbers of prisoners at a time. They were originally designed on the USS Voyager to cope with a large number of prisoners rescued when replying to a distress call. However, they have been integrated into the latest Akira-Class designs to cope with any situation which arises.
