Call for evidence: Independent sentencing review 2024 to 2025
This submission to the Independent Sentencing Review draws on empirical prison research to examine how sentences are experienced and managed in practice. It focuses particularly on sentence progression and individual assessment, arguing for more nuanced approaches to long-term imprisonment that better balance security needs with meaningful opportunities for progression. The response emphasises practical implementation challenges and offers concrete recommendations for reform based on direct research evidence.
