<p>The information requested is not held centrally to a sufficient degree of accuracy
for release. It is not mandatory for offenders on arrival at prisons establishments
to provide this information and the interface would not be able to differentiate search
criteria in order to obtain this percentage.</p><p> </p><p>We are taking forward recommendations,
including giving governors the budget and flexibility to spend their resources appropriately
to help prisoners keep important family or significant other ties which occurred in
October 2017. Prison Governors are working in partnership with family services providers
to meet the identified needs of prisoners, including developing relationships for
prisoners who do not have access to family for several reasons including leaving the
social care system.</p><p> </p><p>We commissioned Lord Farmer to undertake a review
on the importance of family engagement to reduce reoffending and prevent intergenerational
crime, the recommendations from which we are now implementing. Lord Farmer is currently
carrying out a further review on family ties, focusing on female offenders, which
is expected to be published shortly</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>
