House of Commons division

Opposition Day: Early release of prisoners

Passed115 ayes · 0 noes

What the vote was about

This debate concerned the policy of releasing prisoners early. For rural counties like Cornwall, with limited policing resources and dispersed communities, changes to the prison release system can have significant implications for community safety and the local justice system.
