3.15 Self-sufficiency and inmate labour 3.15.1 The delegation raised concern about the DCS' failure to make adequate use of the resources available to it, in particular agricultural land. The Leeuwkop facility was built on land suitable for agricultural activity for example, but was under-utilsed partly because maximum security inmates could not participate in work activities. It is hoped that the improved relationship with the Department of Agriculture and Land Affairs will result in more work programmes and improved agricultural productivity.
