Josh Babarinde

Liberal Democrat — Eastbourne

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 October 2025

Debate

Sentencing Bill

Contribution

I did not, but maybe the right hon. Gentleman can agree on the point that I want to make. He spoke about the challenges that Governments have had when modelling prisoner numbers and the prison population. Does he therefore agree with David Gauke, who recommended in his report that there should be an independent body that does that modelling, and is he disappointed that there is not a feature of that in the Bill?
