How Much

The $ costs to implement What in Corrective Services NSW or Corrections Victoria, under the Pilot Phase, should be returned within three years due to a reduction in Corrective Services annual Administrative Costs due to replacing approx. half of future jail Sentences with a Swift, Frightening and a Painful Dose of Corporal Punishment (described in Number Of Punishment Strokes Proposed In The Pilot Stage Of The Re-introduction Of Corporal Punishment in Australia), whereupon Rehabilitation adopting Practices in Scandinavia and Texas to Improve Outcomes Due to Economic Necessity commences.

Below is an extract from Four Gears of Early Rehabilitation and Release:

"Based on the successes in Rehabilitation in Scandinavia and Texas, Four Gears of Early Rehabilitation and Release would -

(i)        reduce the $4.6b annual cost of the Australian prison system by $300 million pa within 5 years and up to a $1 billion within 10 years;

(ii)       reduce the current unsustainable Recidivism/re-offending rates of greater than 50% of inmates returning to jail within three years of release to less than 30% within three years of release, just as it has in Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland;

(iii)      be a more effective Deterrent to others committing Non-Murderous Crimes; and

(iv)      increase income tax coffers at the ATO by around ¹/6 of 1% within 5 years and ¼ of 1% within 10 years.
