Police Report
Expense of Punishment
4 N. South Wales

If nothing less than physical security be
deemed sufficient, physical barriers as above proposed , such as
high walls and must be employed
But moral security - the security of a
responsible Bondsman would be a great deal
better than none at all, and it would the inconsistency
would be still greater, if those who
look upon a pr the rendering banishment perpetual
in fact as a measure measure not
too severe so long as it is represented as but temporary
in law the violence done to justice, by
the substitution of temporary banishment in fact
to a banishment given out as temporary by
the sentence of the law, as a price not too great
to pay for the purchase of such a measure of
security as it affords, should look upon regard object to the
annexation of the sort of moral security here
proposed, though it were by a retrospective law
as a hardship too great to be imposed. Accordingly,
after allowing the allowance of as many
options as can be devised - King's service
in all its branches - East India Service or the service of a private
Master Bondsman of a
man's own choice

(neither none
of these services need refuse admission after
a course of reformatory discipline carried undergone
for so many years) Mr Bentham's plan
was that the embracing acceptance of the employment
provision to be made by him should be compulsory:
and that in case of desertion from either branch of private service adequate
powers of recapture should be provided.
Mr Colquhoun has in his Book on the Police
suggested the same sort of security in general terms.
and Your Committee scruple not to recommend it
for consideration as an addition, equally at once mild and
efficacious and unexpensive,
to that apparatus of chronical
punishment as applied to Felons.

to the system of chronical punishment.
