Enforcement of decisions by withholding from remuneration for the work of inmates of special educational establishments
§ 12
In the course of the execution of the decision by deduction from the remuneration of the prisoner of the special educational establishment, the amount to be paid for the partial reimbursement of the costs shall be deducted from the remuneration of the prisoner of the special educational establishment and the remainder shall be rounded down to an amount divisible by three, expressed in whole crowns. Only one third of this amount may be deducted to satisfy the recovery claim.
