	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/06/2020 answer text <p>We are implementing our compartmentalisation strategy (isolating the symptomatic; quarantining new arrivals; and shielding the vulnerable) in the prison estate. The latest PHE modelling indicates this strategy has shown early signs of success. We are increasing headroom in the prison estate to better enable prisons to implement compartmentalisation and reduce the number of prisoners sharing cells. This has been actioned through a combination of the early release of low-risk offenders, provision of temporary accommodation and expediting remand hearings to reduce the unsentenced population.</p><p> </p><p>We are installing over 1,000 temporary cells to increase space and help reduce the spread of the virus. These units are being placed where there are the highest number of shared cells, a lack of in-cell sanitation and where there are high numbers of vulnerable prisoners. We have also opened an Annex at HMP/YOI Rochester to hold up to 70 men.</p><p> </p><p>Upon arrival into custody, all prisoners’ suitability to share a cell is risk assessed. These assessments are based on numerous factors including health concerns.</p><p> </p><p>The table below identifies the number of prisoners, broken down by establishment, sharing cells holding two or more people as at 27 March, 24 April and 29 May 2020.

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/06/2020 answer text <p>We are implementing our compartmentalisation strategy (isolating the symptomatic; quarantining new arrivals; and shielding the vulnerable) in the prison estate. The latest PHE modelling indicates this strategy has shown early signs of success. We are increasing headroom in the prison estate to better enable prisons to implement compartmentalisation and reduce the number of prisoners sharing cells. This has been actioned through a combination of the early release of low-risk offenders, provision of temporary accommodation and expediting remand hearings to reduce the unsentenced population.</p><p> </p><p>We are installing over 1,000 temporary cells to increase space and help reduce the spread of the virus. These units are being placed where there are the highest number of shared cells, a lack of in-cell sanitation and where there are high numbers of vulnerable prisoners. We have also opened an Annex at HMP/YOI Rochester to hold up to 70 men.</p><p> </p><p>Upon arrival into custody, all prisoners’ suitability to share a cell is risk assessed. These assessments are based on numerous factors including health concerns.</p><p> </p><p>The table below identifies the number of prisoners, broken down by establishment, sharing cells holding two or more people as at 27 March, 24 April and 29 May 2020.

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/05/2020 answer text <p>On 4 April, the Government announced its intention to temporarily release risk-assessed prisoners within two months of the end of their sentence as part of the national plan to protect the NHS and save lives. Up to 4,000 offenders will be released on the End of Custody Temporary Release scheme (ECTR) on an ongoing basis during the COVID-19 outbreak, with cases reviewed weekly.</p><p>As of 1 May 2020, there have been 51[1] prisoners released under the emergency release schemes. Thirty of these were released under the ECTR scheme, while 21 offenders were released under a separate scheme for pregnant women or mothers with babies.</p><p>All prisoners released must pass stringent criteria and will be subject to strict conditions and will be electronically monitored, including with GPS tags, to assure compliance with the requirement to stay at home. Offenders released on End of Custody Temporary Release (ECTR) can be immediately recalled to prison for breaching their conditions or committing further offences.</p><p>[1] Fewer than five prisoners have been released in Wales. We do not report figures fewer than five due to data protection rules.</p> answering member constituency South East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Lucy Frazer question first answered 07/05/2020 15:06:20 answering member 4517 label Biography information for Lucy Frazer

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/05/2020 answer text <p>The Prison Service has implemented a three-pronged approach to contain the spread of COVID-19 within jails, known as ‘compartmentalisation’, with an order issued by HMPPS on 31 March. Through this approach, staff have isolated those with symptoms, and many prisons have been able to shield the vulnerable and quarantine new arrivals for 14 days. Creation of these units required time and head room and were implemented at a differential pace across individual prisons, but prioritisation was given to isolating those with symptoms and shield those assessed as vulnerable. Separating those with symptoms has been taking place since early February.</p><p>As at 4 May, prisons in Wales reported 359 cases of prisoners with symptoms in isolation, and 141 cases of vulnerable prisoners shielding. Local reporting began on 10 March.</p><p>59 prisoners that have been newly received by prisons in Wales have been quarantined since central data began being collected on 20 April.</p> answering member constituency South East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Lucy Frazer question first answered 07/05/2020 15:02:47 answering member 4517 label Biography information for Lucy Frazer
