WOMEN PRISONERS AND THEIR CHILDREN

  • Session: 1998-99
  • Date tabled: 14.07.1999
  • Primary sponsor: Flynn, Paul
  • Sponsors:

    That this House believes that custodial sentences for women offenders with dependent children should be used only when essential for public safety; believes that the imprisoning of babies should end and that redundant open prison areas should be converted to hostels for women offenders and children; calls on the Government to establish a new category for those women offenders with babies who are not a risk to public safety; and further suggests that women offenders who have been sentenced to custody should be allowed a period of two weeks prior to beginning their sentences in order for them to make arrangements for their dependent children.
