What this is

Prison-based production within the Ministry of Justice refers to the range of agricultural, artisanal, and industrial activities carried out by or with inmates in correctional facilities (such as carpentry, farming, livestock rearing, and sewing). The revenue generated by these activities contributes to the prison administration's budget, with a portion potentially allocated to the inmate. Above all, prison production enables inmates to learn a trade, thereby facilitating their social reintegration upon release.

At the counter

What readers say they paid

The law sets a fee. At the counter it is not always the one you pay. Here is what readers report, counted and summarised.

Nobody has reported an amount for this procedure yet.

If you have done it, say what you paid. We publish the figures together, never your account on its own.

Report what I paid

No name, no number, no link. We refuse those.

We publish how many reports there are, the range and the median. Never your report on its own, never an official's name, never a named office.
