State Minister of National Security, Zavia Mayne, says the government is in the process of developing Jamaica’s first Offender Management Policy.
Mayne says the policy will play an important role in the country’s efforts, to create a balance between incarceration and rehabilitation.
Mayne says two of three drafts have already been submitted to parliament.
The state minister says the policy will contain a rigid outline about how Jamaica will approach rehabilitation going forward.
