Automatic early release for inmates to end

Posted by Jeff Rees on March 17, 2007 10:12 PM | 

PRISONERS will no longer be released automatically after half their sentence, following a vote in the Scottish Parliament yesterday. MSPs passed an Executive act changing the way sentences are handed down and served.

Why won't the British let Wales have the powers to take care of it's own sentencing policies?
