Dr Luke Evans

Conservative — Hinckley and Bosworth

Speaking in the House of Commons on 27 October 2025

Debate

Prisoner Release Checks

Contribution

There are almost a dozen pages in the statement and the Secretary of State has taken questions for almost an hour, but there is one word that I have not heard: “sorry”. That is really important, particularly for the 14-year-old victim and her father. The Justice Secretary has said a number of times that he has personally reached out and thanked the police. Has he personally reached out to the victims? Has he tried to speak to them? Has he tried to say sorry?
