uin	188123
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/11/2018 answer text <p>Women’s centres and rape support centres are independent organisations. The MoJ has provided funding to both, but does not oversee their work and bears no responsibility for maintaining records of them. Maps have been produced in the past showing snapshots of their number and location at that point in time. The women’s centres map was published in guidance for the police on working with vulnerable women, alongside the female offender strategy in June 2018; the rape support centres map has been shared with various stakeholders, but has not been published and there are no plans at present to publish it.</p><p>Our female offender’s strategy sets out a programme of work to improve outcomes for female offenders, based on our vision of seeing fewer women entering the justice system and serving short custodial sentences, and better conditions for those women in custody. We are keen to work in partnership with women’s centres and other local organisations to deliver this vision.</p> answering member constituency Charnwood answering member printed Edward Argar question first answered 12/11/2018 17:20:27 answering member 4362 label Biography information for Edward Argar

uin	188007
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/11/2018 answer text <p>We are taking decisive steps to tackle the use of drones as a supply route for criminals to bring contraband, including drugs and mobile phones, into prisons. Last year we launched Operation Trenton, a specialist team of Prison Service and Police investigators, to work together to intercept drones and track down the criminals behind them.</p><p>It is not possible to identify from centrally held data which convictions secured under the Prison Act 1952 relate specifically to drones. However, we believe that at least 45 people have been convicted of illicit drone activity, with those sentenced serving a total of more than 140 years in prison. On 26 October, following the largest investigation of its kind, an organised criminal gang of 15 were collectively sentenced to nearly 40 years in prison for using drones to drop drugs into a number of prisons. The ringleader, Lee Anslow, received a sentence of 10 years, the highest single sentence for drone-related activity to date.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart question first answered 12/11/2018 17:37:47 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart
