Recommendation 18

18 Paragraph: 152

Bring forward legislation to enable IPP resentencing for all sentenced individuals

Recommendation
Our primary recommendation is that the Government brings forward legislation to enable a resentencing exercise in relation to all IPP sentenced individuals (except for those who have successfully had their licence terminated). This is the only way to address the unique injustice caused by the IPP sentence and its subsequent administration, and to restore proportionality to the original sentences that were given.
