	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/08/2018 answer text <p>The offence(s) for which each prisoner serving a sentence of less than 12 months was imprisoned, as at 31 March 2018, can be viewed in the table.</p><p> </p><p>Sentencing is a matter for our independent courts, who take into account all circumstances of the case, including any aggravating and mitigating factors.</p><p> </p><p>Whilst there is persuasive evidence that short custodial sentences of less than 12 months do not help some offenders turn their backs on crime, protecting the public will always be our top priority. Under this government, the most serious offenders are more likely to go to prison, and for longer, helping protect the public and keep communities safe.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart previous answer version 68131 answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart 72810 answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart attachment 1 file name PQ158712 Response Table.xlsx title Table for PQ 158712 question first answered 17/08/2018 09:31:17 question first ministerially corrected 11/12/2018 13:36:42 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart attachment 1 file name PQ158712 Response Table (Revised 28 November).xlsx title Revised Table for PQ 158712
