Security Company Could Be Fined After Failing To Tag Released Inmates

A security company hired by the government could be fined after failing to fit some of the inmates freed early this month with electronic tags, a minister has told LBC. Safeguarding minister Jess Phillips told LBC's Nick Ferrari at Breakfast that Serco may face penalties after it emerged that some offenders, including convicted domestic abusers, had not been fitted with tags.

”She added: “The prisons minister, I believe, has had some pretty robust meetings, and is meeting with Serco today, but the contract certainly has in it the allowances for there to be penalties.“I’m almost certain that in this case, that unless something massively improves very, very quickly, that all of those things will be considered.”Ms Phillips also labelled the early release of domestic abusers "very worrying".
