The Committee has noted the Government’s reply to its earlier comments.

Article 2(2)(c) of the Convention. The Committee previously noted that section 31 of the Prisons Ordinance provides that prisoners sentenced to imprisonment without hard labour shall be employed at such work as shall be prescribed by the regulations, and that section 51(1) of the Prisons Ordinance authorizes the Governor in Executive Council to make regulations for the employment of prisoners either within or outside the prison in which they may be confined. The Committee has noted the Government’s statement in its report of 2002 that prisoners are not allowed to work for private individuals, companies or associations and that they work under the supervision and control of prison officers. The Committee would appreciate it if the Government would supply a copy of the regulations governing the employment of prisoners referred to in section 51(1) of the Prisons Ordinance.
