This assessment led to its abolition by the Coalition Government in 2012 and its replacement with a new regime of determinate sentences alongside life sentences for the most serious offenders. We are taking steps, namely the creation of a case progression unit and the ongoing implementation of a joint NOMS and Parole Board action plan, to improve the opportunities given to remaining IPP prisoners to progress towards release. However, IPP prisoners should continue to be detained if the level of risk they pose to the public cannot be safely managed in the community.</p> answering member constituency East Surrey answering member printed Mr Sam Gyimah question first answered 28/02/2017 17:15:21 answering member 3980 label Biography information for Mr Sam Gyimah

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/07/2017 answer text <p>All prisoners undergo a thorough individual risk assessment following conviction and sentencing and placed in a prison suitable to their risk. Assessed risks are risk of escape and of harm to the public in the event of escape/abscond and risk to the good order of the establishment and the safety of those within it.</p><p> </p><p>The prison estate is organised in categories of risk ranging from category A for the highest risk offenders to category D for those posing the lowest risk. Balanced alongside this is the need to separate specific cohorts of prisoners such as women and young people and deal with prisoners who are particularly difficult, or whose management requires particular expertise, such as very high risk or especially vulnerable prisoners.</p><p> </p><p>The procedure for changing a prison’s security categorisation would be the same for new prisons as existing ones. This includes a comprehensive assessment of the physical security of a prison’s infrastructure, the necessary staffing levels to manage the desired population and the adequacy of ancillary and partner services, including health care, activities and education.</p> answering member constituency East Surrey answering member printed Mr Sam Gyimah question first answered 07/07/2017 14:11:07 answering member 3980 label Biography information for Mr Sam Gyimah
