Let low risk prisoners and ipp prisoners come home so there safe from covid19

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

It's unfare families of prisoners can't see prisoners its also unfare how there more at risk from covid19. Low risk prisoners and ipp prisoners should be allowed to come home temporarily to assure their safety

Prisons are full they're unsafe. It's impossible to protect prisoners from covid19 when prisons are so full and prison staff are reduced because of covid19. I feel prisoners should temporarily be allowed home with there family's.
