answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/11/2014 answer text <p>Drug offending is serious in itself and drug abuse also underlies a huge volume of acquisitive and violent crime which can blight communities. Previous convictions, where they are recent and relevant, must be treated as an aggravating factor by the courts and will make the sentence more severe. The independent Sentencing Council issued a sentencing guideline on drug offences, effective from February 2012, which brought sentencing guidance together for the first time to help to ensure consistent and proportionate sentencing for all drug offences that come before courts.</p><p> </p><p>The table below shows the number of offenders sentenced to immediate custody for the possession of (a) class A, (b) class B and (c) class C drugs offence in England and Wales, for the 12 months ending March 2014, by the number of previous convictions.</p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning question first answered 18/11/2014 17:57:27 question first ministerially corrected 17/02/2015 10:01:49 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning attachment 1 file name 208713 - Number of previous convictions for A-C.xls title Immediate custody for drug offences previous answer version 28630 answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning attachment 1 file name 208713 table.xls title Immediate custody for drug offences
