    Prisoners’ rights — Release on licence — Claimant serving indeterminate sentence

    I 'bumped' into this issue recently (no- that is not why I was away from the forum for a while, before you ask! :tung.

    Apparently, prisoners on IPP/DPP have to convince the Parole Board that 'something' has occured in prison which has rehabilitated them.

    Usually, this would be something like entering/completing a special programme aimed at addressing their particular 'problem'.

    All good?

    Unfortunately, due to lack of resources, facilities are sadly lacking, creating a 'Catch-22' - no programme = no evidence of attending programme = no parole!

    IPP/DPP has now been scrapped - but that does not apply retrospectively. - http://thejusticegap.com/News/the-di...in-the-system/

    There are hundreds, if not thousands, of young people who are in prison with , what are effectively, life sentences.

    Some, sadly, find an alternative 'way out'.

    This ruling can't help matters http://cases.iclr.co.uk/Subscr/searc...1/wlrd2013-274

        It wasn't my fault, Your Honour!

        I was just trying to stop someone causing an affray during a 'demonstration' up The Smoke.........
