One of the questions in this afternoon session came from Conservative MP Philip Davies, asking the prime minister if she agreed with the last Labour government that "all prisoners should be released halfway through their sentences", which he called "an outrage that flies in the face of public opinions" and the reason for an upsurge in prison violence.
Mrs May said it was important to consider the impact the release of a prisoner would have "on the wider community" when releasing prisoners.
She said it was an issue of concern when she was home secretary and that it's not just about releasing prisoners but about "what measures we have in place to rehabilitate ex-offenders".

One of the questions and answers earlier came from SNP MP Stewart Malcolm MacDonald, asking the prime minister if she was willing to meet with him and a young constituent of his - Declan Duncan - who was a victim of cyber bullying, to discuss forcing social media companies to do more to help.
Mrs May said social media was mainly a force for good, but that it can be used and abused. She said there were MPs present who had suffered bullying and trolling online.
She said the issue was best addressed by the terms and conditions of the social media companies themselves.

Section 67, otherwise known as the Dubs amendment, states that the UK will transfer unaccompanied refugee children who were already in Europe before 20 March to the UK.
Responding to an urgent question on 10 October, Home Secretary Amber Rudd said she expected French authorities to hand the UK government a list of unaccompanied children eligible for resettlement, under the Dublin Regulation, from the Calais Jungle camp.
The Dublin Regulation states that refugees are required to claim asylum in the member state in which they first arrive.
The demolition of the ‘Jungle’ refugee camp began on 24 October.
