The justice select committee will be calling on justice minister Robert Buckland to appear in the hot seat on Wednesday.

The minister will be tasked with answering questions on the government’s response to the JSC report and  changes to the probation model recently announced.

Amy Rees, Jim Barton, and Sonia Crozier will also face questioning.

The Committee will also take evidence on the management and supervision of men convicted of sexual offences. This was the subject of a joint HM Inspector of Probation and HM Inspector of Prisons report in January 2019.
