I would imagine the only circumstances in which a prisoner would get the minimum wage is if the prisoner was working from an open prison.. and doing an every day job for a private company.. i.e Mcdonalds...then I suppose he/she would get the minimum wage and rigthly so... if they were just paid £9 for a 40hr week at Mcdonalds the only people to profit would be Mcdonalds!...

Of course there is a case to say a high percentage of the prisoners wages could be held back but that is another argument...
