Minister Duncan further explained that the Inmates Association filed a court case which will be heard on Friday and his Ministry intends to file a counter claim. The Justice Minister said he instructed the Prison Director to hire more staff because if the inmates do not want to work and make money while incarcerated then he would have to find people to work. "When more staff is hired the prisoners will not have any work. I have a department within the prison that sews the uniforms for the Justice Ministry and if they too don't want to work then I would have to stop the program and outsource the work."
