Free trips for crims By Fay Burstin PRISONERS will be able to seek free interstate travel, meals and accommodation under new laws proposed by the Bracks Government. Victorian taxpayers would pick up the bill. Under new laws before Parliament, prisoners will be able to travel interstate for the first time to visit sick or dying relatives, attend family funerals or get urgent medical treatment at the taxpayers' expense. They may seek up to seven days' leave, which could cost taxpayers tens of thousands of dollars. The state's 3687 prisoners may currently seek compassionate leave on similar grounds, but only for travel within Victoria. Spokesman for Corrections Minister Andre Haermeyer, Tim Mitchell, said yesterday that prisoners would only be granted leave in exceptional circumstances. news.com.au
