answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/06/2015 answer text <p>Police reform is working and crime is falling. The independent Crime Survey for England and Wales shows that crime has fallen by more than a quarter since June 2010, with almost 2.5 million fewer crimes a year. Everyone now has a direct say in policing in their area, through their locally elected and accountable Police and Crime Commissioner. Since coming into post, PCCs have brought real local accountability to how Chief Constables and their forces perform. PCCs are also taking a lead role in driving collaboration between forces and with other emergency services to deliver more effective services and better value for money for the taxpayer. Beyond policing, PCCs have brought focus and drive to work with local partners on crime and criminal justice matters. Ultimately, it will be for the public to assess the performance of their Police and Crime Commissioner through the ballot box.</p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning question first answered 02/06/2015 16:07:24 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/06/2015 answer text <p /> <p>The National Offender Management Service (NOMS) has a comprehensive drug strategy for prisons, which includes elements to both reduce the demand and supply of drugs in prisons. The success of the strategy is illustrated by the reduction of drug misuse in prisons, as measured by the random Mandatory Drug Testing (MDT) programme, which has declined by 17.5 percentage points over the past 17 years, despite the fact that NOMS is testing for more drugs than previously. Positive rates were 7.8% in 2009/2010 and 6.9% in 2014/2015.</p><p> </p><p>The table below shows the 81 prisons in England and Wales that reported no drug misuse, as measured by random MDT, in at least one month of the 2014/15 financial year.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td colspan="4"><p><strong>Prisons that recorded no positive random MDT results in </strong></p><p><strong>at least one month in 2014/15</strong></p><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Ashfield</p></td><td><p>Full Sutton</p></td><td><p>Lowdham Grange</p></td><td><p>Swinfen Hall</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Askham Grange</p></td><td><p>Gartree</p></td><td><p>Low Newton</p></td><td><p>Thorn Cross</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Bedford</p></td><td><p>Garth</p></td><td><p>Maidstone</p></td><td><p>Usk</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Blantyre House</p></td><td><p>Glen Parva</p></td><td><p>Moorland Open</p></td><td><p>Wakefield</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Brinsford</p></td><td><p>Grendon</p></td><td><p>Mount</p></td><td><p>Warren Hill</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Bronzefield</p></td><td><p>Guys Marsh</p></td><td><p>New Hall</p></td><td><p>Wellingborough</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Brixton</p></td><td><p>Haverigg</p></td><td><p>North Sea Camp</p></td><td><p>Werrington</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Buckley Hall</p></td><td><p>Hindley</p></td><td><p>Norwich</p></td><td><p>Wetherby</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Bure</p></td><td><p>Hollesley Bay</p></td><td><p>Onley</p></td><td><p>Whatton</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Chelmsford</p></td><td><p>Holloway</p></td><td><p>Peterborough Female</p></td><td><p>Whitemoor</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Coldingley</p></td><td><p>Hull</p></td><td><p>Peterborough Male</p></td><td><p>Winchester</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Dartmoor</p></td><td><p>Humber</p></td><td><p>Prescoed</p></td><td><p>Woodhill</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Deerbolt</p></td><td><p>Huntercombe</p></td><td><p>Portland</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Drake Hall</p></td><td><p>Isle Of Wight</p></td><td><p>Ranby</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>East Sutton Park</p></td><td><p>Kennet</p></td><td><p>Rye Hill</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Elmley</p></td><td><p>Kirklevington</p></td><td><p>Send</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Erlestoke</p></td><td><p>Lancaster Farms</p></td><td><p>Spring Hill</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Featherstone</p></td><td><p>Leyhill</p></td><td><p>Stafford</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Feltham</p></td><td><p>Leicester</p></td><td><p>Standford Hill</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Foston Hall</p></td><td><p>Lincoln</p></td><td><p>Stocken</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Ford</p></td><td><p>Lindholme</p></td><td><p>Styal</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Foston Hall</p></td><td><p>Littlehey</p></td><td><p>Sudbury</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Frankland</p></td><td><p>Long Lartin</p></td><td><p>Swaleside</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr></tbody></table> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 03/06/2015 13:19:36 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/06/2015 answer text <p>The Portuguese approach to drugs was reviewed within ‘Drugs: International Comparators’ published in October 2014<em>.</em> The report is clear that the successes in Portugal cannot be attributed to decriminalisation alone. Whilst drug use went down and health outcomes improved, there was, at the same time, a significant investment in treatment.</p><p> </p><p>This Government has no intention of decriminalising drugs. The UK's approach on drugs remains clear: we must prevent drug use in our communities, help dependent individuals through treatment and wider recovery support, whilst ensuring law enforcement tackles the criminality that is associated with the drugs trade.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning question first answered 01/06/2015 09:39:23 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning
