Summary

Mr C, who is a prisoner, complained that a prison did not pay him the correct amount for attending education sessions.

Our investigation found that Mr C attended 64 lessons, but was only paid for eight of these. We, therefore, upheld his complaint but did not make recommendations as the prison had taken action to reimburse Mr C for the unpaid lessons.
