Details

Information relating to the introduction of the provision in the Victims and Prisoners Act 2024, which was announced via Gov.uk on 1 November 2024, which introduced the automatic termination of IPP licences for those offenders who meet the statutory requirement.

The reforms, commenced on 1 November, mean IPP offenders who were first released from custody at least 5 years ago (4 years if convicted when under 18 years old) but not sent back to prison in the last 2 years will have their licences automatically terminated.

Lord Timpson will refer to these published statistics in a speech in the House of Lords on 15 November.
