Correctional Programmes 3.3.9 A concern was raised that in cases where inmates were transferred from elsewhere, courses completed at the centres of origin were disregarded, and they were forced to start programmes from scratch. The region reported investigation into the allegation revealed that a number of offenders, particularly those transferred from the Kutama Sinthumule private correctional centre, had been transferred without their sentence plans or profile reports. The DCS controller at the Kutama Sinthumule centre was informed that the matter "must be elevated as a discussion point on their agenda". The DCS further indicated that all regions would be requested to ensure that all the relevant information is included in the case files of those that were being transferred.
