Proceeding contribution from Bob Spink (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 December 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Offender Management Bill.
Offender Management Bill
The Home Secretary is being very generous. I was wondering why I agreed so much with the statement that he just read out. I hope that this intervention will help him. Does he recall telling the House that young black men are about five times more likely to be in prison than young white men? We therefore need to tackle that problem by ensuring that no prejudice at any point in the criminal justice system causes that, and that young black men have the same life chances and opportunities as others in the community. Will he tell the House which agencies could focus on the problem, and how we can find a solution to it?
