The disclosure came as officials referred to the ongoing crisis that had intensified on December 2, when Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy said the system relied too heavily on outdated paperwork. The mistaken releases followed earlier high-profile errors and stirred fresh criticism over overcrowding and underinvestment across the prison estate. Opposition parties argued that pressure within England and Wales’ prisons had reached unsustainable levels as the inmate population continued to surge.
