Yes Jim, the should not get home leave, also if you re offend, IE commit another crime, (not breach a condition) they should have double the sentence, do it a third time treble the sentence.
You have to have probation hostels as to let someone out after two or three years away is madness to let them fend for themselves, the convict will say they are ok, but its a big stress point as most think they are being looked at and everyone knows they have just come out of prison.
The biggest problem in re offending is that the courts can only send them down for what the guidelines say instead of being able to be an unlimited time unless they are considered dangerous and then the judge can impose a indeterminate sentence for public protection, (IPP) which meens they have to be assessed before release and not at halfway point.
