Allow Conjugal visit in Northern Ireland

Allow Conjugal visit in Northern Ireland — 8 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

We want the government and parliament to recognize the importance of preserving family bonds and to implement legislation that grants eligible incarcerated individuals the right to conjugal visits in a safe and regulated manner.

Additional details

I want the government to allow conjugal visits because they help inmates keep family bonds, support mental well-being, encourage good behavior, and improve rehabilitation. Strong relationships reduce stress, strengthen stability after release, and lower reoffending. This respects dignity, creates safer prisons, and supports reintegration and stronger communities.
