These families have united in a call for a parliamentary investigation into the _mental health provisions_ in prisons.

The indefinite nature of these sentences has left many families in distress. The lack of adequate support and provision for inmates' mental health has led to _serious concerns_ about their well-being. Families argue that the system not only imprisons the individual but also erodes the mental health of the entire family unit.
Call for Action
Relatives are advocating for a thorough review and reform of the practices affecting mental health care in prisons. They believe that **improved mental health services** are necessary to address the long-term consequences of these indefinite terms.
