Extract
Dear Mr Straw, I awoke on Monday 19 July to the news that you were publishing a Consultation Paper to explore the possibility of introducing preventive detention for people with severe personality disorders. In your interview on radio that morning you seemed very determined to be sure that such legislation was introduced in the expectation that incarceration of the 200 people with severe personality disorders who would be subject to such detention, would somehow enhance public safety.
