answer:This does sound ludicrous to me. At best, it’s paternalism. “Fiona Cannon, chairwoman of the taskforce, said: ‘Instead of a punishment of last resort, women’s prisons are now seen as stop-gap providers of drug detox, social care, mental health assessment and treatment and temporary housing – a refuge for those who have slipped through the net of local services.’” So men do not need drug rehab, social care, and mental health treatment?
