Debate
Sentencing Guidelines (Pre-sentence Reports) BillContribution
In considering this amendment, I have been particularly mindful of the challenges that these women face in custody. Although I am not persuaded to accept the amendment, I fully recognise the strength of feeling on this and would like to explain the Government’s approach in drafting the Bill and some of the important wider work we are doing to support women in custody.
