(1) The Legislature finds that it is in the best interest of the state for the department to: (a) develop job opportunities to further enhance the rehabilitation of inmates of the Utah state prison; (b) establish and actively work toward the goal that all inmates shall be productively involved in a treatment, education, or work program, or a combination of these programs, as appropriate, except for inmates who the department determines have a physical or mental disability, or pose a danger to the public, so that they are unable to engage in these activities; and (c) submit a comprehensive management plan outlining the department's plan to meet this goal to the Legislature on or before November 1 of each even-numbered year, and the plan shall include: (i) a cost-effective analysis of current inmate education, treatment, and work programs; and (ii) a study of the feasibility of expanding inmate work programs, particularly in regard to programs that: (A) are not capital intensive; (B) do not unfairly compete with existing Utah industry; and (C) are designed to increase the motivation, develop the work capabilities, and foster the cooperation of inmates.
