There was a point to my question. I accept what has been said. It is a different subset that I will be focusing on. We have to take actions that reduce the number of short-term offenders who are in prison. It would be of great assistance to Travellers because they form a disproportionate number of those offenders. I am speaking about both men and women because we know that many women are in prison for shoplifting or theft of one type of another. Are Travellers mainly in prison for theft, assault or public order? What are the main offences for which they are in prison? Do we know?
