What's bonkers? The amount the prisoners earn or the levy?
I suppose earning a bit inside aims to get them into the habit of working for a living once they're out (although of course not everyone is in jail for not earning an honest living).

The amount they earn is bonkers. It should be £20-£30 and not wages that are comparable with outside.

Most of them do earn much less than that. When approaching release, though, it doesn't make sense to bump people out on the streets with no way of supporting themselves. If they did, the prisons would be even more full than they already are, because a choice between eating and stealing would be no choice at all.
