Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 December 2025

Debate

Sentencing Bill

Contribution

The proposals for the progression model in the Bill are the result of extensive work by the Independent Sentencing Review. All proposals, including the new framework for release, have been thoroughly considered. Excluding certain offences from the changes would make the system more operationally complex and increase the risk of inaccuracies in release calculations.
