Proceeding contribution from Lord Hylton (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 5 June 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HL) on Offender Management Bill.
Offender Management Bill
This group of amendments gives me the opportunity to make a point about the Parole Board. I understand that there are at this moment considerable delays in presenting prisoners, and the necessary reports on them, to the Parole Board. This has added unnecessarily to the lengths of sentences served. I believe that it has also led to individual prisoners making compensation claims for excess imprisonment. I hope that the Minister will be able to respond with good news about what is being done to put this problem right.
