UK prisoners 'to pay crime victims'
Up to £1m (€1.5m) a year will be taken from the wages of prisoners who work in communities and used to support victims of crime, ministers in Britain said today.
About 500 inmates who work outside prisons will see their take-home pay cut by up to 40% and used to help support victims as part of Justice Secretary Kenneth Clarke’s rehabilitation revolution, the Ministry of Justice said.
