Janet Daby

Labour — Lewisham East

Speaking in the House of Commons on 1 September 2026

Debate

Criminal Justice Reform

Contribution

I am sure that the Lord Chancellor is aware that it is estimated that 20% of the prison population is made up of young people or adults who have previously been in care. Will the Lord Chancellor take a leading role across Government to ensure that there are measures in place to prevent care-experienced people going into prison, and that if they are in prison they have the necessary support to make sure that they do not return?
