Jailhouse Lawyer: Irish Consultation on Penalism
Jailhouse has reposted a report (from April 5) on the Irish people's attitude to imprisonment versus drug and psychiatric treatment and no-custodial sentences here. Not sure where it is reproduced from but a survey in the UK would surely give similar results, and provide a better rationale for changing tack than temporary expediency.

Hi Chris, I have been away for a couple of days at a conference in Milton Keynes.
I have now included a link in this report. Sorry, I forgot to do so before.
P.S.
At the conference I heard it said that a survey had been carried out and the stats were pretty similar. I assume they meant over here because Ireland was not mentioned.
