English term or phrase: association time

Telephone Calls – We realise that many foreign nationals may be very far from their families and friends. In addition to any calls you pay for, you are allowed to make a maximum of one free ten minute telephone call to your country each month in exchange for one visit.

In addition to your canteen purchases you can buy up to £20 per week phone credits for international phone calls which can be made during association time only. This is to allow you to make regular international calls

What is meant by 'association time'?

Explanation:
is this text about a prison?
I suppose it could mean during social or recreation time, just a guess.

no, not a prison but perhaps some sort of camp?
