Norway plans to rent prison space in the Netherlands as the queue of convicts awaiting cells is growing and renovation work at Norwegian jails is expected to cut capacity, the justice ministry said on Monday.

挪威司法部週一表示，計畫在荷蘭租用監獄，因等待入監的罪犯正大排長龍，而監獄的整修預計會減少容納人數。

"At the moment, the queue is at 1,300 custodial sentences, and there is a great demand for detention space," it said in a statement. "The Netherlands has already leased prison capacity to Belgium for several years."

「此時，有1300名被判入獄的人龍，監禁空間的需求非常龐大。」其透過聲明表示。「荷蘭已經將監獄租給比利時數年了。」

Norwegian prisons are known for their relatively humane treatment of inmates, with non-violent offenders often held in open prisons with some free personal movement, jobs, recreation facilities and focus on rehabilitation.

挪威囚犯以獲得相對人道的待遇著稱，非暴力罪犯通常拘留在開放式監獄中，有一些自由的個人活動、工作、娛樂設施，讓其改過向善。
