completed on entry to custody for all prisoners for each calendar year 2015-2018. It therefore will include a mix of those received into custody on remand and those sentenced from court. Using just the BCS, there is no way to determine which of those received into custody on remand were released un-convicted, therefore it is important to stress that this data covers prisoners, and can’t be used to describe offenders, as some of those counted will ultimately not have been found guilty of any offence.</p><p>2) NFA on reception is determined where the answer to question B3.1 OR B3.4 on the BCS has been answered as ‘NFA’. If B3.1 is answered NFA then B3.4 isn’t made available to be answered, so it is not possible to double count NFA within the same BCS.</p><p>3) The two questions are: B3.1 – What was your accommodation status before prison &amp; B3.4 – What type of housing did you live in before you came to prison</p><p>4) These questions from the BCS Part 1 are recorded as per the prisoner’s answers and are not assessed.</p><p>5) The total number of prisoners shown is for the number of fully completed BCS Part 1s for each year, based on the Reception Date for each prisoner.</p><p>6) A proportion of prisoners will enter custody multiple times each year and for this PQ all responses have been included as a prisoner may provide different answers to these questions over time.</p><p>The figures have not been checked by statistician</p> answering member constituency South Swindon answering member printed Robert Buckland question first answered 05/06/2019 16:50:57 answering member 4106 label Biography information for Sir Robert Buckland

Table B breaks this down by local authority.

The annual recorded value of the additional grants is set out in Table C.</p><p> </p><p>Due to a change in reporting processes the additional grants given in 2014/15 and 2015/16 were not included in the published totals in the 2017/18 youth justice statistics.

These can include serious effects such as suicidal thoughts, psychotic reactions and behavioural disturbances. Symptoms typically emerge within a few days or weeks of starting the treatment. Patients and/or their carers should be warned by the prescribing physician that potentially severe psychiatric adverse reactions may occur with oral corticosteroids and encouraged to seek medical advice if any worrying psychological symptoms develop.</p><p>Other side effects of corticosteroids, particularly when taken long-term, include increased susceptibility to infection, disturbances of the nervous system, osteoporosis, muscle weakness, suppression of the adrenal glands, stomach ulcers and changes to the eye (glaucoma and cataract).</p><p>A detailed list of the side effects known to occur with corticosteroids is available in the product information for prescribers (the Summary of Product Characteristics and Patient Information Leaflet which are produced by the manufacturer and authorised by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) for each product. Key side effects are also detailed in the British National Formulary. As with all medicines, the safety of corticosteroids is kept under review by the MHRA and product information is updated and warnings issued when necessary.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 05/06/2019 16:47:11 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price
