About the report
Pact has convened an unprecedented alliance of Christian leaders to urge decisive government action in tackling our failing justice system.
Over the past two decades, Christian churchgoers and charities have been increasingly providing the type of support to vulnerable members of society (both victims of crime and those who offend) that was once delivered by government organisations.
Ordinary Christians are doing their part; it is time for the government to take on its responsibility for maintaining a safe society where everyone in contact with the criminal justice system is treated with humanity. We believe that the government should encourage and further support the valuable work that they do.
