Ban chemical castration in the criminal justice system

We urge the UK Government to ban chemical castration as a means of treating or rehabilitating sex offenders and enabling early release based on undergoing such procedures. We think this practice raises serious concerns about ethics, human rights, and public safety.

We think that linking it to sentencing or early release risks public safety and weakens justice for victims. We are concerned it could pressure offenders into invasive treatment without full consent. We want the government to support ethical, rights-based rehabilitation. Justice must protect society without violating dignity.
