Offender Rehabilitation Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Sadiq Khan (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 November 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Offender Rehabilitation Bill [Lords].

I am terribly sorry to intervene again. Is my right hon. Friend aware of the concept of justice reinvestment? Manchester probation trust, for example, has excellent intensive alternatives to custody, and rather than being used to pay dividends to shareholders, the savings that are made are reinvested in other schemes that reduce reoffending even more. This is an example of a win-win situation, with public sector experts reducing reoffending and the money saved going to projects that reduce reoffending even more.
