Abstract

In oral evidence given to the Equality, Local Government and Communities Committee in January we referred to ongoing research being carried out by the Wales Governance Centre into imprisonment and deprivation in Wales. Our research continues and is currently at a preliminary stage. This evidence submission has been compiled to provide the Committee with some of our initial findings as part of its inquiry into voting rights for prisoners in Wales. This evidence will begin by providing an overview of the findings from existing research into social exclusion and imprisonment. Although the relationship between imprisonment and deprivation in Wales has yet to be subject to any kind of serious analysis or research, the section that follows will present an initial analysis of the Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation alongside Welsh imprisonment data broken down by local authority.
