A penal sanction - is time added on to a sentence for bad behaviour. For example - in the UK, a sentence of less than five years usually means (if the convict behaves) he will serve half of it. If the prisoner does something that warrants a sanction - he would get time added on to his sentence - up to the maximum he would serve without 'parole'.
