Proceeding contribution from Ian Lucas (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 July 2007. It occurred during Opposition day on Penal System.
Penal System
Perhaps the hon. Gentleman does not understand what release on licence means. It is a long-established concept, whereby for the duration of the sentence imposed by the court, the prisoner is subject to recall to prison if he commits a further offence. The concept is clear, and I am surprised that the hon. Gentleman does not appear to understand it.
