Found: David Gauke, described the first stage as “a period of reflection”.

The Committee agrees with Justice Secretary David Gauke that there is a very strong case for abolishing sentences of six months or less altogether.

Re-offending costs an estimated £15 billion a year; the report recommends that there must be a focus on investing services to reduce this, thus cutting crime and reducing the overall size of the prison population - which is increased through repeat imprisonment.

The report argues that the Government’s focus on addressing safety and decency in prisons has come at the expense of rehabilitation.

The Ministry of Justice needs to refocus its efforts to enable a dual approach to maintain both safety and decency, as well as improve rehabilitation.

Ministers need a clear plan of action to tackle the problem of rising prison populations and the health and safety of prisoners.

The Justice Committee welcomes the Government’s agreement with the issues raised in its Prison Population 2022: planning for the future report, but says ministers have failed to commit to a sufficient plan of action to effectively tackle the crisis faced.

This inquiry into the prison population focuses on:

• Who is in prison and who is expected to be imprisoned over the next 5 years
• The reasons prisoners are there, why they stay there and why they return
• Whether the Ministry of Justice and prison services currently have a credible approach to accommodating the changes anticipated.

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what discussions she has had with the Sentencing Council on the adequacy of the sentencing tariff for perpetrators of disability hate crime.

Answered by Nicholas Dakin - Government Whip, Lord Commissioner of HM Treasury

Disability hate crimes are completely unacceptable, and this Government is committed to tackling these appalling crimes. We have a robust legislative framework in place in England and Wales to respond to hate crimes, including those which target disability.

Sentencing in individual cases is a matter for our independent courts, who are required to take into account statutory aggravating and mitigating factors and follow sentencing guidelines developed by the independent Sentencing Council unless it would be contrary to the interests of justice to do so. As an independent body, the Sentencing Council decides its own priorities and work plan for producing guidelines. Parliament is responsible for the sentencing framework, including statutory aggravating and mitigating factors, and setting the maximum penalty for offences.

Under Section 66 of the Sentencing Code for England and Wales, the court must treat as an aggravating factor the fact that an offender demonstrated hostility towards the victim based on his or her disability (or presumed disability); or the offence was (wholly or partly) motivated by hostility towards persons who have a particular disability. An aggravating factor makes an offence more serious and must be considered by the court when deciding the length of a sentence.

Additionally, the Government has committed to ensuring parity of protection for disabled and LGBT+ people under aggravated offences and will implement this change in an appropriate legislative vehicle in due course.

The Government has delivered on a manifesto commitment to bring sentencing up to date and ensure the framework is consistent by launching an Independent Review of Sentencing, chaired by former Lord Chancellor, David Gauke. The Review will examine options following three core principles: sentences must punish offenders and protect the public, sentences should encourage prisoners to turn their backs on a life of crime, and we must expand and make greater use of punishment outside of prison.

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, if she will make an assessment of the potential merits of a review of sentences for people serving a custodial sentence for posting offensive remarks on social media.

Answered by Nicholas Dakin - Government Whip, Lord Commissioner of HM Treasury

Sentencing in individual cases is a matter for our independent courts. There are a range of communication related offences, both summary-only and triable either way, across different pieces of legislation with varying maximum penalties. For example, section 127 of the Communications Act 2003 which criminalises the sending of a communication that is either grossly offensive, or of an indecent, obscene or menacing character. This offence carries a maximum 6 months’ imprisonment and/or unlimited fine.

The Government has launched an Independent Review of Sentencing chaired by former Lord Chancellor, David Gauke. The Review will examine options following three core principles: sentences must punish offenders and protect the public; sentences should encourage prisoners to turn their backs on a life of crime and we must expand and make greater use of punishment outside of prison.

Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will make an assessment of the potential merits of proposals to increase the maximum sentence for coercive control beyond five years.

Answered by Jess Phillips - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Home Office)

Controlling and coercive behaviour (CCB) is a particularly insidious form of domestic abuse and I recognise the devastating impact that it has on victims.

The Ministry of Justice has launched an Independent Review of Sentencing chaired by former Lord Chancellor, David Gauke, which is currently ongoing. The Review will specifically look at offences primarily committed against women and girls, and the Government is dedicated to ensuring that the harm caused by these devastating crimes is appropriately and proportionally reflected in the sentencing framework.

Separate to changes in sentencing, through the Victims and Prisoner Act 2024, offenders convicted of coercive or controlling behaviour, who are sentenced to 12 months or more, will soon be automatically managed under Multi-Agency Public Protection Arrangements (MAPPA). This change will place serious coercive or controlling behaviour offending on an equal footing with serious and/or violent offenders and create greater consistency in how these domestic abuse offenders are managed in the community. The extra monitoring of offenders, and restrictions which can be placed upon them, via MAPPA management will serve to reduce their risk of reoffending and give greater assurance of safety to previous victims in the coming months

Tackling VAWG in all its forms, including CCB, is a top priority for this Government.

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, whether her Department’s sentencing review will consider the potential merits of designating misogyny as a hate crime.

Answered by Nicholas Dakin - Government Whip, Lord Commissioner of HM Treasury

Tackling violence against women and girls is a priority for this Government. This Government has made a clear commitment to halve violence against women and girls within a decade.

Our manifesto committed to a review of sentencing to ensure the framework is up to date. In October 2024, the Government launched an independent Sentencing Review, chaired by David Gauke.

The Sentencing Review will be guided by three principles. Firstly, sentences must punish offenders and protect the public – there must always be space in prison for the most dangerous offenders.

Secondly, sentences must encourage offenders to turn their backs on a life of crime, cutting crime by reducing reoffending. Thirdly, we must expand and make greater use of punishment outside of prison.

The Review has a broad remit. It will be up to the chair to decide on the areas of focus, but we have asked the Review to specifically look at the sentencing of offences primarily committed against women and girls.

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, whether her Department’s sentencing review will consider the suitability of sentences for honour-based violence.

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, whether she plans to review sentencing guidelines for extreme misogyny.

Answered by Nicholas Dakin - Government Whip, Lord Commissioner of HM Treasury

This Government has made a clear commitment to halve violence against women and girls within a decade. We will use every tool within our power to target perpetrators and address the root causes of abuse and violence. We will also work with key partners and organisations that support victims of these crimes.

Sentencing guidelines are developed and reviewed by the independent Sentencing Council for England and Wales, in fulfilment of its statutory duty to do so. The guidelines produced provide the Court with guidance on factors that should be considered, which may affect the sentence given. They set out different levels of sentence based on the harm caused and how culpable the offender is. As an independent body, the Council decides its own work plan and priorities.

The Government has launched an independent Sentencing Review, chaired by David Gauke. The review has been asked to specifically examine the sentencing of offences primarily committed against women and girls.

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what assessment she has made of the appropriacy of custodial sentences for pregnant women.

Answered by Nicholas Dakin - Government Whip, Lord Commissioner of HM Treasury

Sentencing in individual cases is a matter for our independent courts. The sentencing framework, maximum penalties and the Sentencing Council’s sentencing guidelines apply to all offenders.

Sentencing guidelines are clear that there are factors that sentencers should take into account to reflect personal mitigation, including pregnancy, or the impact on dependent relatives. Guidance makes clear that where an offender is on the cusp of custody, imprisonment should not be imposed where there would be an impact on dependents, that would make a custodial sentence disproportionate to achieving the aims of sentencing. However, in some circumstances, custody would be the only appropriate punishment for the most dangerous and violent offenders.

This Government has delivered on a manifesto commitment by launching an Independent Review of Sentencing, chaired by former Lord Chancellor, David Gauke. The Review will assess whether the sentencing framework appropriately considers the specific needs or vulnerabilities of women, including pregnant women. Additionally, we are establishing a Women’s Justice Board with a clear ambition to reduce the number of women in prison and to address their distinct needs within the Criminal Justice System.

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what recent estimate she has made of when the Independent Review of Sentencing will be complete.

Answered by Nicholas Dakin - Government Whip, Lord Commissioner of HM Treasury

This Sentencing Review is chaired by former Lord Chancellor, David Gauke and aims to ensure that there is always a place in prison for violent offenders.

The Review launched on Tuesday 22 October 2024 and is estimated to run for six months. We therefore expect that the review will report in Spring 2025.

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what steps her Department is taking to (a) ensure that current prison expansion plans are sufficient to meet projected demand and (b) prevent potential overcrowding in prisons serving Leicester and the surrounding areas.

Answered by Nicholas Dakin - Government Whip, Lord Commissioner of HM Treasury

Our 10-year Prison Capacity strategy published on 11 December sets out plans to deliver 14,000 prison places the previous Government promised but failed to deliver. It also sets out our plans to maintain the places in our estate to ensure we have sufficient accommodation and explore the acquisition of land should we need to build more prison places. This will include a new 1,700-place prison in Leicestershire (next to HMP Gartree), in addition to HMP Fosse Way in Leicester which opened in 2023.

We have also launched an Independent Sentencing Review, chaired by former Lord Chancellor, David Gauke. The Review’s aim is to ensure we are never again left in a position that this Government was, where we have more prisoners than places available.

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask His Majesty's Government what advice they are giving to prosecuting authorities, and via court sentencing guidelines, to minimise the number of women sentenced to imprisonment for any reason other than the protection of the public.

Answered by Lord Timpson - Minister of State (Ministry of Justice)

Charging decisions, and guidance are made by the Crown Prosecution Service, and sentencing is determined by independent courts. The Sentencing Council for England and Wales issues guidelines for sentencing that apply to all offenders and operates independently from Government.

It is right that we have a gender-neutral sentencing framework that recognises the specific circumstances of individual offenders.

Whilst there will always be women who do need to be in custody, we must ensure they are given the best chance possible to tackle the drivers of their offending and to contribute meaningfully to society.

This Government has delivered on a manifesto commitment by launching an Independent Review of Sentencing, chaired by former Lord Chancellor, David Gauke. The Review will assess whether the sentencing framework appropriately considers the specific needs or vulnerabilities of women. Additionally, we will establish a Women’s Justice Board with a clear ambition to reduce the number of women in prison and address their distinct needs within the Criminal Justice System.

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what comparative assessment her Department has made between the sentencing for child sexual offences in the UK and sentencing in other Western nations.

Answered by Nicholas Dakin - Government Whip, Lord Commissioner of HM Treasury

The criminal law in England and Wales provides a range of offences to deal with the scourge of child sexual abuse and provides robust penalties that reflect the seriousness of this offending. Child sexual offences generally carry high maximum penalties; for example, the offences of rape of a child under 13 and assault of a child under 13 by penetration both carry a maximum penalty of life imprisonment.

Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own sexual offences. The sentencing framework across international jurisdictions varies widely.

The Government has delivered on a manifesto commitment to bring sentencing up to date by launching an Independent Review of Sentencing chaired by former Lord Chancellor, David Gauke. The Sentencing Review will be guided by the evidence on what works to keep the public safe from harm and rehabilitate offenders. This includes looking at evidence from the criminal justice system in England and Wales as well as other jurisdictions in the UK, and internationally.

Question to the Attorney General:

To ask the Solicitor General, what assessment she has made of the adequacy of the conviction rate for the offence of stalking; and if she will have discussions with the Secretary of State for Justice on increasing the maximum sentence for that offence.

Answered by Sarah Sackman - Minister of State (Ministry of Justice)

This Government is committed to tackling stalking as part of our ambitious mission to halve violence against women and girls in a decade.

Since 2017, there have been yearly increases in the number of stalking offences charged which proceeded to a first hearing in the magistrates’ courts. In 2018/19, there were 2,208 such cases, and in 2023/24, they more than doubled to 5,859. However, more can be done.

In April 2023, the CPS amended prosecutorial guidance on stalking which has assisted prosecutors to better select the appropriate charge.

Earlier this month and in partnership with the National Police Chiefs’ Council, I welcomed the CPS’ Domestic Abuse Joint Justice Plan, which aims to improve the way that cases are prosecuted and handled. Stalking features prominently in the plan, which applies to all forms of stalking, and is captured within high-harm, high-risk repeat offending.

The Government has also delivered on a manifesto commitment to launch an Independent Review of Sentencing, chaired by former Lord Chancellor David Gauke, to bring sentencing up to date and ensure the framework is consistent and clear to victims and the public.

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, whether (a) victims and (b) the (i) family and (ii) friends of victims of crime will be represented on the expert panel for the Independent Sentencing Review 2024 to 2025.

Answered by Nicholas Dakin - Government Whip, Lord Commissioner of HM Treasury

The Review will be chaired by the former Lord Chancellor, the Rt Hon David Gauke, supported by a panel which includes expertise drawn from prisons and probation operations, prosecution, academia, law enforcement, victims, and the judiciary.

The process for the appointment of the panel follows the usual public law principles which are applicable to all ministerial decision-making, and within the scope of direct ministerial appointments. Appointments must be rational, procedurally fair, and non-discriminatory.

This Sentencing Review aims to ensure that there is always a place in prison for violent offenders, and victims will always know that justice will be done. It will also aim to ensure that sentences are consistent and make sense to victims and the public. That is why a victims’ representative forms part of the multidisciplinary panel conducting the Review.

Following the launch of the Review on 22 October, appointments were finalised in early and mid-November, and subsequently published on 14 November on GOV.UK.
