I've just been having a google, in between ironing shirts. Those working 'under prison rules' were exempt from the Minimum wage in 1999. Mind you that was 8 years ago. A lot can happen in 8 years. Can anyone clarify what 'prison rules' means? Does that mean all prisoners or just certain ones?

I wish they would repeat the name of the person interviewed in the mornings more slowly because I didn't catch it and I'd have like to be able to look him up. He seemed to think that they were covered by the minimum wage when John Humphries sounded astonished at the idea.
