Ministers have proposed banning criminals from sports games and bars as an alternative to prison to free up space. We ask locals whether they think this is a good idea and if it would work in the long run.

00:00I can understand what they're trying to do to free up space obviously because we

00:06don't have space in prisons but is it going to solve the issue is kind of

00:11where are you thinking with it yeah I mean I can see what you're saying but is

00:15removing the pub or sports privileges from them going to make any real

00:20difference I'm not sure I would say that wouldn't work perfectly because then

00:25they would be more curious and like they would probably like find ways to try to

00:29get in and the other ways that they would try would not be like helpful to

00:34the public it'd be rather more dangerous I think a lot of work needs to be done

00:38to the individual so it would be a base by base basis on that to be honest so

00:44depending on the crime or what they've done or are they willing to come back

00:48into society again and I'll be willing to give them a second chance so looking

00:53out all of these kind of avenues then we would be able to make a best a best

00:58decision on that
