The weekly prison population figures are available on the SPS website.

The Scottish Parliament website contains helpful information on the passage of legislation and the work of the Criminal Justice Committee.

If you’re looking for more details about current or historic topics which HLS may have knowledge of, or a point of view on, or if you’d like to draw our attention to something, please contact emma@howardleague.scot.
