Closed petition Reform prison system: more open prisons, allow jobs for prisoners, levy earnings

Closed on

The Government should reform the prison system by building more open prisons, so that low-risk prisoners can be in open prisons and allowed to work. The Government could levy their earnings and use the money to fund programmes to support young people and prevent pathways to crime.
