Offender Management Bill

I well remember a story about how Winston Churchill sat in the gardens of No. 10, dictating to his secretary the words, ““I had not intended to intervene in this debate””. I certainly did not intend to intervene, but it is an important debate on an important subject. It is a matter for the Government, and it has been subject to consultation and amendment. It has been severely trawled by the media and it has attracted a great deal of attention in the country.
