A Proposal To Rehabilitate Criminals

By Elsa English


The consistent higher levels of re-offending have led to a radical renovation as almost half the total number of ex-convicts re offends in less than a year on their release. The figure is higher at about fifty eight percent in those that serve for terms of less than one year. The drafted new proposal is established to rehabilitate criminals so as to see a drop in re-offenses rates. The following is what is entailed in it.

Plans which are underway in the bid to transform rehabilitation focus on new and streamlined public sector that will be tasked in ensuring the public is safe from dangerous and high risk offenders. The private and voluntary organizations are to work hand in hand on eliminating the cycle of criminal justice system by tackling risk offenders of lower caliber. The first time offenders and those serving for less than a year will be subject to tailored rehab and compulsory supervision once released from prison.

The proposal provides for main usage of mentors that are supposed to encounter the lawbreakers upon their release. They are to be provided with the necessary support in running of their day in day out aspects of their lives. Some of the overseen help include, restoration by offering aid in finding jobs and accommodation, coming over drugs, intoxicants and alcohol and also monitoring their educational and literacy problems.

Releasing offenders into the society with only a minute amount of cash and with no available support helps in no way. It is not a big deal that we get increased higher level of released criminals re-offending the crimes. It therefore makes no sense to continue with the exact old system and yet keep hoping for positive different results.

We are well aware of the existence of expertise and wealth across the private, public and voluntary sectors. We are supposed to unlock this potential so that we can in the long run commence to tackle down the stubbornly high rates of re-offending. The private and voluntary sectors will get invitation to bid with each contract being awarded based on innovation and best value in tackling re-offending.

The proposal aims to ensure offender sent to jails or probation get adequately punished as a way of getting aid in converting from evil doing. This reflects to spending from coffers of taxpayers on tasks based on the process or countering the crime rate. The public domain is anticipated to sustain the responsibility of keeping the general public safe in every situation.

This new approach will oversee to that the private providers get paid in full only on condition that they are able to reduce re-offending rates in their areas. It will be based on payment by results contract. These proposals are aimed at driving advanced innovations and efficiency through the system of criminal justice. An amount of money is also to be offered to voluntary and communal sector groups in order to ensure they get ready to commence bidding for services.

The above overviews have been undergone in depth scrutiny and realized to be well effective in countering the rates of repeated crime. Their drafting is well done to enable the ex-convict integrate into the community in a smooth manner and also acquire an honest livelihood.
