The Chancellery is preparing a decree to put in place alternatives to prosecution for the majority of offenses committed in prison. This results in "a deprivation of certain activities such as sport, writing letters of apology or being deprived of television", according to a union member.
A measure that is impossible to put into place in French prisons with an overpopulation rate of 125% and a shortage of prison guards, according to the union. The union member says the measure is an absurd text that will not work in the long term.
