The 10-year Prison Capacity Strategy, alongside an independent review of sentencing, is part of a wider strategy to make sure we always have the prison spaces needed to keep the public safe. The strategy sets out how we will build 14,000 prison places to increase the capacity of our prison estate, and reform the planning system to reduce delays to prison builds.
