| Annotation | The Home office and Ministry of Justice jointly published a Green Paper, 'Engaging communities in criminal justice' in April 2009. Charities representing the six equalities strands (including ageing) were asked to provide further input to the consultation. This summary outlines the main points made by Age Concern and Help the Aged relating to inclusion of people from all social groups in being involved and informed about the criminal justice system, with information being disseminated through a wide range of media, and with links into crime reduction networks such as Neighbourhood Watch. Age limits and retirement ages should be abolished for voluntary and paid positions within the criminal justice system. (RH). |
