Speaking in the House of Lords on 6 January 2026
Debate
Sentencing BillContribution
We agree with the earned release concept that the Bill incorporates. The Government have moved towards our position on rewarding good behaviour in prison, introducing what I call carrot as well as stick. These are important reforms, and, for these principled reasons, we will be opposing this amendment.
