According to the Ministry of Justice, people who are still unemployed six weeks after being released are twice as likely to reoffend as those in employment.

"It will help ensure prisoners are doing what is necessary to reduce the risk they will reoffend and create more victims," he says.

I used to think you could figure out compatibility from a distance and foresee how things would turn out like I look at a criminal history to judge whether someone will reoffend.

Sara Manchipp, from Port Talbot, said: "I was just totally flabbergasted that somebody who has caused so much torment and distress in our lives, could just come out of prison, have a new identity and just go on to reoffend."

He said the policy saved money and better prepared inmates for release which made them less likely to reoffend.
