How can the Government use public protection as justification for holding this axe of immediate recall over the head of someone on an IPP now living in the community? Give them supervision and support, of course, but let it be normal probation supervision and support, in the form of an extended licence, if need be, for a determinate sentence, as specified in Amendment 7 in my name in the other group. Resentencing, turning an indeterminate sentence with no end date into a normal, determinate fixed-term sentence is what the Justice Committee in the other place said in 2022 and the logic is still unassailable.
