BUT there are some issues here. Early release would be earned through eg attending rehabilitative courses, education etc in prison. But these are already massively oversubscribed. How can prisoners demonstrate good behaviour in their cells 20+ hours a day?

Strengthening alternatives to prison sentences is crucial and the right place to start. More options for community sentences, investment in drug and alcohol treatment for offenders, encouraging more deferred and suspended sentences all welcome steps that evidence suggests will reduce reoffending.
