Work Release Criteria

C Lane made this Official Information request to Department of Corrections

The request was successful.

From: C Lane

Dear Department of Corrections,

In regards to life sentenced inmates, at what point (if any) are they eligible to work out side of prison grounds?

Is working outside prison grounds for life sentenced inmates available before they have reached their first parole?

If so, how would one go about this in Ngawha Prison?

What grounds and criteria would one need?

Also how would a life sentenced inmate become eligible for application to reside in self care units? How would one go about this?

Yours faithfully,

Moka Harris
