Reducing Reoffending: the “What Works” Debate
REDUCING REOFFENDING: THE “WHAT WORKS” DEBATE RESEARCH PAPER 12/71 22 November 2012 The remanding and sentencing of people alleged to have been involved in the riots in England in August 2011 caused the prison population to rise again, before falling back to pre-riot levels. It now stands at around 86,300 (below the record high of 88,179 on 2 December 2011). That surge in the prison population made the debate about prison and whether it “works” all the more urgent. Evidently, while they are in prison, offenders cannot commit further offences in the community, but what happens when they are released? Are they less likely to reoffend? Does prison help offenders to “go straight”? If not, what might? Is prison, in fact, an expensive way of making bad people worse? This paper examines the evidence for the effectiveness of prison and programmes in the community aimed at reducing reoffending and some of the claims and counter-claims for whether “prison works”.

From Lord Berkeley 07710 431542, [email protected] Simon Case Esq CVO Cabinet Secretary Cabinet Office, SW1
From Lord Berkeley 07710 431542, [email protected] www.tonyberkeley.co.uk Simon Case Esq CVO Cabinet Secretary Cabinet Office, SW1 12 August 2021 Dear Simon, HS2 – Ministers misleading Parliament. I wrote to you on 9th July requesting you to investigate allegations that ministers have failed to comply with the Ministerial Code by misleading parliament. I have not had the courtesy of any substantive response from you and it appears from a letter received from Bernadette Kelly, Permanent Secretary at the Department for Transport, dated 4th August 2021 that you requested her to respond on your behalf. I find her response wholly unacceptable; clearly she is seeking to defend her ministers’ and her department’s reputation. However, I repeat my request to have a response from you as Cabinet Secretary. In this situation, I sought the advice of one of your permanent secretary predecessors (and a former private secretary to two prime ministers}, Sir Tim Lankester KCB, who is perhaps best known for his work in upholding the integrity and independence of the civil service against overbearing ministerial interests in linking overseas aid to arms sales. Sir Tim comments to me in relation to HS2: ‘Dear Tony, Like you, I think the continuing deception over the costs of HS2 is an absolute disgrace. We had come to expect this from ministers, trying to protect their own backs and trying to protect the project's credi- bility against mounting evidence that it is a gigantic waste of the nation's scarce resources. But what I find utterly horrible, and in some ways even worse, is the Permanent Secretary's complicity in this de- ception. -
