You have prisoners that were given ipp sentences which have now been scrapped as against human rights that are still in prison years after their recommended release dates

It’s cruel and unjust they see no end in sight and nothing left to look forward too. It’s not just ipp that serve the sentence families do too. They need to know they will be released. Everyone deserves a second chance

It’s past it’s time, no person should be held captive without the hope of freedom, even god forgives

Changing the test for release will mean that the Parole Board can rely on a much lower threshold, when assessing risk to the public, but more importantly the opportunity to utilise much more of the current support available to IPP,s on release. It makes sense to all professionals involved in the release, supervision and support of ex-prisoners in the community, and it is long overdue...

IPP prisoners have had hope taken from them. All offenders need something to strive for, IPP's need to know they will be released. Its cruel and unjust to lock up and throw away the key.

My partner is IPP and I find the sentence absolutely disgusting, they see no end to their sentence, everyone deserves a chance of freedom. The IPP sentence was abolished for a very good reason but still too many are left suffering along with us as families
