Justice
Heidi Alexander (Lewisham East, Labour)
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice what estimate he has made of the average cost of supervising an individual under the proposed intensive community punishment order.
Crispin Blunt (Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Prisons and Probation), Justice; Reigate, Conservative)
‘The Punishment and Reform: Effective Community Sentences’ consultation proposes to develop an Intensive Community Punishment Order for offenders who deserve a significant level of punishment, but who are better dealt with in the community to maintain ties with work and family. As set out in the impact assessment, the consultation asks respondents for their views on how ICPO could work and MOJ will assess the impacts when the final proposal is developed.
The impact assessment that MOJ published alongside the consultation can be found on the following webpage:
