From 17 August 2015 all public sector establishments offered an e-cigarette on their Local Product List (prison shop form). The decrease in e-cigarette sales since August is thought to be due to an initial peak in sales when these products were first introduced.</p><br /><p>[1] Rounded to the nearest 100, or nearest 10 when sales are less than 1,000.</p><p>[2] Sundries include, for example, rolling papers, lighters, matches, filter tips and rolling machines.</p> answering member printed Lord Faulks question first answered 17/12/2015 16:02:36 answering member 4183 label Biography information for Lord Faulks

Due to changes in recording practices in 2011 some HDC r+A1:N70ecalls were, for statistical purposes only, not correctly identified between 2011 and 2013. For this edition of OMSQ we have changed the data source used for HDC recalls to the Public Protection Unit Database which will ensure that recalls during the HDC period are now properly identified. Consequently, figures from 2011 onwards have been revised and are now taken from this new data source resulting in a break in series from 2011. Figures for 2010 are not available.</p> answering member printed Lord Faulks question first answered 14/12/2015 18:00:44 answering member 4183 label Biography information for Lord Faulks

They mainly accommodate offenders released from custody, although they are available for defendants who cannot be bailed to their own addresses (or are being assessed for bail). APs are staffed 24 hours a day and the average size of a women’s AP is 19 beds.</p> answering member printed Lord Faulks question first answered 14/12/2015 15:23:57 answering member 4183 label Biography information for Lord Faulks

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/12/2015 answer text <p>When reform began we had an unsustainably expensive legal aid system - costing more than £2 billion every year. We still have a very generous system, last year we spent £1.6bn on legal aid, around a quarter of the department’s expenditure.</p><br /><p>Statistics on legal aid in England and Wales are published every quarter, presenting the key statistics on workload and expenditure across both the criminal and civil legal aid schemes. The statistics are available via <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/legal-aid-statistics" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/legal-aid-statistics</a>. The vast majority of legal aid work is carried out by solicitors working in the private sector. It is difficult to summarise workloads across the legal aid system meaningfully within a single number because there is no single definition of a case that applies to all of the diverse services being provided, so users of legal aid statistics are best advised to look at trends in workload for each area of legal aid separately.</p><br /><p>For many areas of civil law, the implementation of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (LASPO) led to a reduction of workload for solicitors in areas where legal aidwas reduced.</p><br /><p>LASPO did not change eligibility or scope in relation to criminal legal aid.</p><br /> answering member constituency North West Cambridgeshire answering member printed Mr Shailesh Vara question first answered 08/12/2015 17:51:33 answering member 1496 label Biography information for Shailesh Vara
