The Commission supports the passage of the proposed bills. By transferring the supervision and control of provincial and sub-provincial jails to BJMP, the government can ensure that these facilities are managed according to national standards and best practices. The BJMP, with its expertise and resources, can provide a more comprehensive and efficient approach to corrections, focusing on the rehabilitation and reintegration of PDLs into society.
