Prisons: Reform
(asked on 24th October 2018) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they responded to the report on prison policy by the Catholic Bishops' Conference, The Right Road, published in November 2016; and if so, what was their response.
This question was answered on 31st October 2018
We have not formally responded to this report. However, we absolutely share the Catholic Bishops’ Conference’s vision of a prison system that rehabilitates offenders and supports victims. We are working towards this through our reforms to prisons, and indeed probation services.
