No, private prisons will sacrifice quality of care and rehabilitation services for profit

Their 2019 general election manifesto specifically mentioned concerns about the quality of care in private prisons, indicating strong agreement with this answer.

Slightly agree

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

While the Labour party would prefer public control of prisons, they may be open to the idea of private companies running prisons if they are strictly regulated to prevent mismanagement and corruption. However, this is not their preferred stance, so the score is only slightly positive.

Neutral

Yes, but eliminate contractual occupancy quotas

The Labour party's primary focus is on ending the use of private prisons altogether, so their stance on eliminating contractual occupancy quotas is not clear. They may be open to this idea as a temporary measure, but it is not their main priority.
