	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/09/2015 answer text <p>I attach a list of each of the prisons from which prisoners have been released on temporary licence (ROTL) in the last 5 years.</p><p>Eligibility for ROTL primarily depends upon the assessment of the prisoner in question rather than the classification of the establishment in which they are currently detained. So, whilst a Category A prisoner cannot have ROTL and Category B prisoners can take it only in exceptional circumstances, lower category prisoners who are eligible to be considered for ROTL are held in category B and in some category A prisons. The key test is whether the prisoner in question is eligible to be considered, has a legitimate purpose for temporary releases linked to the sentence plan, and passes the rigorous risk assessment required.</p><p>Since 2013 when the process was revised there has been a 39% drop in the number of temporary release failures. This is the lowest failure rate since 2002, and the absconding rate has reached record lows under this and the Coalition government.</p> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 16/09/2015 15:17:09 question first ministerially corrected 03/03/2016 14:46:42 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous attachment 1 file name 9482 - table.xlsx title temporary licence releases Jan 2011 - March 2015 previous answer version 21827 answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous
