Speaking in the House of Lords on 29 July 2024

Debate

Criminal Justice Act 2003 (Requisite and Minimum Custodial Periods) Order 2024

Contribution

ECSL was one of a series of decisions that must be examined more fully. That is why the Lord Chancellor announced a review into how this capacity crisis was allowed to happen. The review will look at why the necessary decisions were not taken at critical moments and will conclude by the end of the year; we will shortly be appointing an independent chair for it.
