Reinstate release of certain serious offenders half-way through their sentence

Petition Details

I would like the Government to reinstate the early release of prisoners who are serving sentences for certain serious crimes, half-way through their sentence, instead of after two thirds of their sentence.

Additional Information

I believe, especially for first time offenders, serving two thirds does not help to rehabilitate but causes serious mental health issues. I believe with the current prison overcrowding, this should be looked in to.

If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
