  • Magistrates Survey
    Independent Advisory Panel on Deaths in Custody and Chair: Juliet Lyon CBE Head of Secretariat: Andrew Fraser 27 June 2019 www.independent.gov.uk/iapdeathsincustody The Rt Hon David Gauke MP Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice Dear Secretary of State, Effective community sentences and the role treatment requirements can play in preventing deaths in custody On behalf of the Independent Advisory Panel on Deaths in Custody (IAP) and the Magistrates Association (MA), we are writing to ask you and your Ministerial colleagues to consider the findings and recommendations of a survey we have recently conducted of magistrates’ views on sentencing powers and practice in relation to offenders with mental health conditions, learning disabilities and other needs. This joint investigation by the IAP and MA is prompted by concerns about unmet mental health needs, the worrying rise of self-inflicted deaths in custody and exceptionally high levels of self-harm. According to your Ministry figures, 23% of men and 46% of women in custody have attempted suicide at some point in their lives compared to 6% of the general population. Yet despite this indicator of risk and vulnerability we note that, of the 75,750 community orders made last year, fewer than 1% (just 458) included a mental health treatment requirement. The focus of our survey was on community sentences as an alternative to custody. We appreciate this is an area of particular interest to you and your colleagues – given the recent announcement of the extension of the Community Sentence Treatment pilots, which we welcome. We hope that this pre-publication copy will be of assistance in your work to strengthen such sentences and ensure their effectiveness.

  • Chair to Lord Callanan
    House of Lords Tel: 020 7219 1228 London [email protected] Select Committee on the Constitution SW1A 0PW www.parliament.uk/lords Rt. Hon Robert Buckland QC MP 11 September 2020 Lord Chancellor Ministry of Justice 102 Petty France London SW1H 9AJ Dear Lord Chancellor, Rule of law and the UK Internal Market Bill I write on behalf of the Constitution Committee regarding our concerns about the rule of law implications of the UK Internal Market Bill. The Bill proposes ministerial powers to allow the Government to depart from the terms of the Withdrawal Agreement with the European Union. As the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland confirmed in the House of Commons, it permits the Government to break international law. Whether that breach is “specific and limited” or not is irrelevant. Any breach of international law threatens to undermine confidence in future treaty commitments made by the UK Government and increases the likelihood that the governments of other countries will breach their international law obligations. Those practical consequences are of great significance. The proposed course of action also appears to be in tension with the constitutional principle of the rule of law and we write to you in that connection. Established international law on treaty modification, termination and withdrawal is clear. The UK is a party to the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, which although applicable for treaties between states, nevertheless outlines several core rules that are broadly considered to reflect customary international law. Articles 61 and 62 of the Vienna Convention set out the narrow grounds on which states may be entitled to exercise a right of withdrawal from a treaty, in each case subject to the procedural requirements set out in Articles 65–68.

The statement on the MoJ website published on 6 November, and the message to stakeholders from Dr Jo Farrar briefly summarising the HMPPS response to the national lockdown in England are both helpful and show the attention that some of the issues we raised have clearly been receiving. We welcome the continuation of phone credit for prisoners, and the availability in most though not all prisons of video calling technology. We hope that the introduction of more testing and the wider use of PPE for both staff and prisoners will allow the day to day regime to be a little less oppressive than it was in the spring and much of the summer for most prisoners. However, the other issues on which we sought a response are still of crucial importance to prisoners and their families. It would demonstrate a commitment to transparency, and we hope reassure those people, if you were now able to respond to our letter.

    The Rt. Honourable Boris Johnson, MP 16-17 Walkden House Prime Minister Devonshire Square 10 Downing Street London London EC2M 4SQ SW1A 2AA The Rt. Hon Robert Buckland QC, MP 11 September 2020 Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice Ministry of Justice 102 Petty France SW1H 9AJ Dear Prime Minister and Secretary of State Re: Accommodation for prison leavers and the Comprehensive Spending Review We are writing as senior leaders of voluntary organisations across the justice, health, housing and homelessness sectors to call on the UK Government to commit to ensuring that everyone leaving prison has somewhere to live. This should be safe and secure accommodation which provides a foundation for them to make positive changes and move away from a life of crime. For people leaving prison, being released homeless is simply setting them up to fail. We believe it is time to ensure that all prison leavers have a place to live upon release. We all know how important having a safe and secure home is. But for too many people leaving prison this has seemed an impossible dream for too long. Almost 1,000 people are released from prison homeless every month, and it is estimated that over 30% of rough sleepers have been in prison. Having nowhere to live holds people back from accessing support, getting a job, or moving on in their lives. And for people released homeless, the risk of committing another crime is significantly higher. Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Probation recently confirmed that the proportion of service users recalled or resentenced to custody within 12 months of release was almost double for those without settled accommodation in a sample of cases they looked at.

  • New Government and Prime Minister – August 2019
    August 2019 New government and Prime Minister – August 2019 This briefing sets out an overview of the government appointments made by the new Prime Minister, Boris Johnson. Full profiles of the new ministerial team for health and social care are set out below, along with those for other key Cabinet appointments. This briefing also covers the election of the new Leader of the Liberal Democrats, Jo Swinson. Introduction In May 2019, Theresa May announced her intention to resign as Prime Minister and leader of the Conservative Party. Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt were the two leadership candidates chosen by Conservative MPs to be put to a ballot of their party membership. Boris Johnson received the largest number of nominations from Conservative MPs and 66% of the vote of party members. Theresa May officially resigned on Wednesday 24 July, with Boris Johnson becoming Prime Minister shortly afterwards. Boris Johnson made significant changes to the government, with less than half of Theresa May’s Cabinet remaining in post. Johnson did not maintain May’s approach of balancing those who voted leave and those who voted remain, instead promoting leading Brexit supporting figures to senior cabinet positions. A full list of Cabinet appointments is contained in Appendix 1. Matt Hancock remains in post as the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, with Caroline Dinenage and Baroness Blackwood also continuing in his ministerial team. They are joined by Chris Skidmore, Jo Churchill and Nadine Dorries. The Liberal Democrats also announced a new leader, Jo Swinson, on 22 July 2019. Swinson, previously the party’s deputy leader who held ministerial roles in the business and education departments under the Coalition government, takes over from former Business Secretary, Sir Vince Cable, who led the party for two years.
