Sentencing review: will it work?
5 Live listeners have their say with Gordon Smart.
An independent sentencing review has made recommendations to tackle overcrowding in England and Wales. Former Secretary of State for Justice, David Gauke, chaired the review: he says "we can't build our way out" of overcrowding. His review recommends fewer short sentences, releasing well-behaved offenders after a third of their sentence, more money for the probation service, and chemical castration for some sex offenders. Gordon heard from listeners all over the UK with their reaction.
