Labour (Co-op) — Feltham and Heston

Speaking in the House of Commons on 15 September 2026

Debate

Reoffending Reduction Programmes

Contribution

I am pleased that the Government are extending intensive supervision courts, which combine rehabilitation with close judicial oversight, as I saw once on a visit to Texas. Tackling the causes of crime and interrupting the cycle of reoffending not only reduces crime, but helps people back into sustainable relationships and employment. Will the Minister share whether consideration is being given to extending the scheme to London in a future roll-out?
