85% Informative
Union general secretary of Napo says sentencing review may come to little effect if underfunded.
He supports proposals to scrap short sentences for some offenders and toughen up community orders.
But he says probation staff are already "overworked" and suggests any "cost cutting" could increase pressure.
Ministry of Justice says it is hiring 1,300 new probation officers and investing in technology to cut back on admin.
