Release IPP prisoners who have served their fixed tariff
IPP sentences were introduced in 2005 to prevent serious offenders who did not warrant a life sentence being released when they still posed a danger to the public. Despite being scrapped in 2012, nearly 3,000 criminals remain behind bars after being given such a sentence.
IPP prisoners who have served their fixed tariff (the minimum term that must be served in custody) should be freed, as these sentences were abolished in 2012 for being indefensible.
