Recommendation 20
20
Paragraph: 99
Public engagement with Sentencing Council consultations remains limited due to resource constraints.
Conclusion
At present, the public consultations conducted by the Sentencing Council on changes to guidelines represent one of the principal means by which the public can engage with the sentencing process. The Council does valuable work in engaging stakeholders in their consultations. However, their limited resources mean the Council only receives a small number of submissions from the public.
