Disagree

Yes, but they should be strictly regulated to prevent mismanagement and corruption

While the Labour Party might see the potential for private sector efficiencies, its fundamental belief in the importance of the state's role in critical public services would make it cautious about any privatization, even with strict regulations. The party would likely remain skeptical about the ability of regulations to fully prevent mismanagement and corruption.

Disagree

Yes, but eliminate contractual occupancy quotas

Although eliminating contractual occupancy quotas might address one of the Labour Party's concerns about private prisons—namely, the perverse incentive to maintain high incarceration rates—it does not alleviate broader concerns about privatization of the prison system, such as the potential undermining of rehabilitation efforts.
