Defence Forces (Temporary Provisions) Act, 1923

Classification of prisoners.

138.—Whereas it is expedient that a clear difference should be made between the treatment of prisoners convicted of breaches of discipline and the treatment of prisoners convicted of offences of an immoral, dishonest, shameful, or criminal character, or sentenced to be discharged from the service with ignominy, the Minister may, from time to time, make rules for the classification and treatment of such prisoners.
