This article outlines the use of body-worn cameras in the Prison Service in the context
of legal solutions adopted by the largest user of such cameras—the Police. It
highlights that the method of usage is insufficient if all interventions are to be fully
transparent. Awareness among officers needs to be raised regarding the positive aspects
of using body-worn cameras. Additionally, clear legal regulations are necessary
concerning the obligation to turn on the cameras and the potential responsibility of
officers for failing to record events.
