CBI comments on publication of probation consultation
The CBI commented on the publication of plans to modernise the probation service and reform community sentences.
Matthew Fell, CBI Director, Public Services Reform, said:
“We welcome this consultation on opening up probation services.
“Commissioning services from the best of the public, private and voluntary sectors will encourage new and better ways to help reduce reoffending.
“Using a ‘payment by results’ model is an effective way to cut crime levels and deliver better value for money to taxpayers by only funding services that work.”
Notes to Editors:
The CBI is the UK's leading business organisation, speaking for some 240,000 businesses that together employ around a third of the private sector workforce. With offices across the UK as well as representation in Brussels, Washington, Beijing and Delhi the CBI communicates the British business voice around the world.
