"a policy primarily designed to relieve the pressure on overcrowded
prisons rather than protecting the public."

"He said: "The Home Secretary now says he wants to impose restrictions on
violent offenders and presumably ban them from approaching certain people
or places. But prisoners released under the Home Detention Curfew Scheme
have committed over 7,000 further offences. And, in 2004-2005 alone, 224
offenders on probation were convicted of further serious offences,
including 26 murders. A criminal who is willing to murder, commit armed
robbery, and burgle is not going to be put off by some sort of super
ASBO."

And Mr Davis declared: "If 42% of ASBOs are ignored by young tearaways,
what will the effectiveness of these so-called super-ASBOs, be against
psychopathic hardened criminals? If the Government cannot make the
sex-offenders register work, how safe should the public feel after this
latest headline grabbing initiative?"

Warning that the Government has failed to deal with the massive problems
affecting the Probation Service, Mr Davis told MPs: "This spate of murders
is the latest symptom of a major failure in the criminal justice system, a
failure by the Government of policy, of strategy, of leadership, and of
management. These measures smack of a policy primarily designed to relieve
the pressure on overcrowded prisons rather than protecting the public.
With 15,000 dangerous offenders back on our streets, let us hope that it
doesn't result in yet more victims of crime, and more families devastated
by murder." "
