Criminal Justice and Courts Bill

Proceeding contribution from Ann Coffey (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 17 June 2014. It occurred during Debate on bills on Criminal Justice and Courts Bill.

Does my hon. Friend agree that we do not have a category of “victims” and a category of “offenders”? Often when one looks into the offenders’ histories, one finds that they themselves have been very early victims. Putting offenders into secure accommodation because they are offenders does not take account of the fact that they themselves are victims and they can become victimised within that environment.
