Justice Committee: Rehabilitation and resettlement: ending the cycle of reoffending

Committee hears from witnesses

The Justice Committee is holding oral evidence sessions to investigate how to break the cycle of reoffending through better rehabilitation and resettlement of prisoners. The inquiry examines what works to help offenders reintegrate into society, reduce reoffending rates, and ease pressure on the prison system.

Reoffending costs the justice system billions annually and creates victims. How effectively the state rehabilitates prisoners directly affects public safety, prison overcrowding, and the viability of the criminal justice system itself. This inquiry will likely influence government policy on sentencing, prison reform, and post-release support.
