Tough but smart justice to cut crime. 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 In Missouri, they intervene early with rigorous rehabilitative programmes to reduce offending. We are delivering this in our youth justice system. Robust parenting orders, transforming an outdated custody estate, new military-style

High-risk offenders will face greater and closer supervision after release from prison, to cut crime and reduce reoffending. That means: ✅Thousands more offenders tagged with GPS and alcohol monitors ✅Cutting-edge tech for probation staff ✅Increased probation workforce

The Sentencing Act is now law. Prisons are under pressure. Without reform, the system risked running out of places for dangerous offenders. A complete breakdown of law and order. The Sentencing Act will ensure that never happens, while keeping communities safe.
