Sentencing (Green Paper)

Proceeding contribution from Rehman Chishti (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 14 December 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Sentencing (Green Paper).
With regard to short sentences, is it not the case that a prisoner who is on six months will do three months and be transferred from one prison to another and then another? Therefore, there is no effective rehabilitation within the system. If the prisoner stays in one prison, he will have management and structure rather than being pushed from one prison to another. Does my hon. Friend not agree that that must be changed?
