| 25 Mar 2026 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1771) “Do you have some idea of the specific challenges faced by the LSB right now?” | 15 |
| 24 Mar 2026 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 469) “My next question was about how well the Probation Service balances the role of public protection with promoting rehabilitation and resettlement. You have identified tensions within that. Why did you point out the north-east and Wales?” | 36 |
| 24 Mar 2026 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 469) “Yes, I have. We have covered everything really.” | 8 |
| 24 Mar 2026 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 469) “We will move on to the Sentencing Act. In your 2024 annual report, you implied that for the sentencing reforms to succeed, the Government had to ensure the Probation Service was—I think the words you used were—“properly resourced”, otherwise it would not be able to provide the effective service the public and victims n…” | 84 |
| 24 Mar 2026 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 469) “Can I just check something? My understanding in my local area is that Community Payback is never done in somebody’s own community, which always struck me as slightly weird. It is something to do with not embarrassing people—I can see somebody behind you vigorously shaking their head. Is there anything in the Community …” | 64 |
| 24 Mar 2026 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 469) “Many reforms in the Sentencing Act will come in from today and towards the end of March. What work is under way within your regions to support those changes? What contingency planning is in place to ensure that the Probation Service’s increased workload can be delivered safely and that the work towards reducing reoffen…” | 66 |
| 24 Mar 2026 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 469) “I am very glad to hear that. I live in a very rural area—possibly not as nice as parts of Wales, which are very different—but the business of having to transport people from A to B to do Community Payback is expensive.” | 42 |
| 24 Mar 2026 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 469) “Thank you very much. That is helpful.” | 7 |

| 24 Mar 2026 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 469) “Have you told us what you think the target caseload for probation officers should be? We have had the figures on what the actuals are, and I recognise there is a variance because these are averages, but what do you think the target caseload should be? There were two numbers given to us—those who are seniors and those w…” | 61 |
| 24 Mar 2026 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 469) “Nicola and Chris, is there anything you would say differently or want to point out that is different in your regions?” | 21 |

| 24 Mar 2026 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 469) “Martin, my question is on what the inspectorate measures. What are the criteria for probation regions in regard to rehabilitation and resettlement? How well is the Probation Service performing in relation to those criteria, and which regions are performing better than others?” | 42 |
| 24 Mar 2026 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 469) “Good afternoon. My name is Tessa Munt. I am the Member of Parliament for Wells and Mendip Hills in Somerset. All my interests are on the register, but I would highlight the fact that I am the vice-chair for the all-party parliamentary group on penal affairs, and a director and vice-chair of WhistleblowersUK, which is a…” | 58 |

| 24 Mar 2026 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 469) “Can I briefly pick you up on something you said? You referred to the cycle of change and a tightrope. Is it the staff who are on the tightrope or the offender?” | 32 |
