Section 12: Transfer from borstal institution to prison

If a person detained in a borstal institution is reported to the Minister by the Director to be incorrigible, or to be exercising a bad influence on the other inmates of the institution, the Minister may direct that the said person shall be detained in a prison for such term, not exceeding the unexpired portion of the term for which the said person is then liable to be detained in a borstal institution, as the Minister may determine; and for the purpose of this Act, the said person shall be treated as if he had been sentenced to imprisonment for that term:
Provided that no such report by the Director to the Minister shall be made earlier than six months following the date of the sentence of the person concerned to borstal training.
