The custodial sentence of a prisoner may not be reduced, when he is transferred from one Member State to another, by reason of time spent working in prison in the first Member State if that Member State has not, under its national law, granted such a reduction in sentence. The Framework Decision governing transfers between two Member States of persons sentenced to serve a custodial sentence has no direct effect. |
