Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Dan Jarvis and Robert Buckland

Tuesday 9th July 2019 Commons Chamber

[Robert Buckland]

In fact, more than 10,000 people work for voluntary organisations that are involved in criminal justice, and I want to involve them more closely. I have mentioned the dynamic framework, but we will also have a £20 million regional outcomes fund to pilot innovative programmes. The new regional probation model will allow local approaches at a local level.
