Proceeding contribution from George Howarth (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 December 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Offender Management Bill.


Offender Management Bill

Does my right hon. Friend agree that there is growing evidence from the education field that former military personnel who deal with disaffected young people in schemes similar to day release from school have achieved success? Organisations such as Skill Force, with which he will be familiar from his days at the Ministry of Defence, and the advanced skills academy in Liverpool, which is run by former military personnel and which I visited last Friday, command more respect from many young people as methods of dealing with offenders than certain other organisations.
