Proceeding contribution from Lord Beith (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 July 2007. It occurred during Opposition day on Penal System.
Penal System
The hon. Gentleman prayed in aid Lord Woolf, but he should not forget that Lord Woolf also said:"““no solution will be really effective, apart from reducing prison population… building more prisons is not the solution, not least because it means that more and more resources are being sucked into the hugely expensive process of building prisons””," instead of"““making effective non-prison sentences””."
