29—Work by prisoners

        (1)         A prisoner is, while in a correctional institution, required to perform such work, whether within or outside the precincts of the correctional institution, as the CE directs.

        (3)         Tasks selected for prison work must, as far as reasonably practicable, be selected on the basis that they are likely to provide prisoners with experience in a recognised profession, trade or other field of employment.

        (4)         The CE must, in directing a prisoner to perform any particular work, have regard to the age and the physical and mental health of the prisoner, and any skills or work experience of the prisoner.

        (5)         A prisoner in a correctional institution is not entitled to perform any other remunerated or unremunerated work of any kind, whether for the benefit of the prisoner or any other person, unless the prisoner has the permission of the CE to do so.
