All employed Chaplains go through a robust recruitment process. Following a competency based application and panel sift there is a three part board consisting of sermon, role play and panel interview. A Chaplain also requires endorsement by their faith community - for Muslim Chaplains this would be the NOMS Muslim Adviser. Sessional Muslim Chaplains are required to have the appropriate Islamic credentials checked by our Muslim Adviser.

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many referrals have been made to Multi-Agency Public Protection Arrangements Approved Hostels and Interventions, including Programmes in each month of the last two years.
tabling member constituency	Cheltenham
tabling member printed	Martin Horwood
uin	210462
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/11/2014 answer text <p /> <p>The Multi-Agency Public Protection Arrangements are a mechanism through which criminal justice agencies can better discharge their statutory responsibilities and protect the public in a co-ordinated manner. MAPPA is designed to protect the public, including previous victims of crime, from serious harm by sexual and violent offenders. MAPPA is not an agency or body in its own right but rather requires local agencies dealing with offenders to work together in partnership in order to manage risk. MAPPA does not commission or operate interventions or programmes and none is unique to offenders managed under MAPPA.</p><p>Approved Premises (formerly known as probation or bail hostels) are used to provide enhanced supervision for higher-risk offenders who have been released from prison after completing the custodial part of their sentence. They also house a small number of defendants on bail. Requiring higher-risk offenders to reside in an Approved Premises enables us to monitor and supervise them as effectively as possible. Whilst in an Approved Premises, they are subject to a curfew and other controls, whilst Approved Premises staff working closely with local police officers to respond quickly to any signs of escalating risk. It would be much more difficult to monitor them if they were dispersed into less suitable accommodation throughout the community.</p><p>Whether an offender is admitted to an Approved Premises depends on specific monitoring and risk management need. Not all offenders under MAPPA are admitted and not all offenders in Approved Premises are managed under MAPPA. The table below shows the number of offenders managed under MAPPA who were admitted to an Approved Premises in each month between September 2012 and August 2014 (the most recent for which we have full data). Data about offenders who were referred to APs but not admitted is not collected in a way that would allow us to distinguish those under MAPPA management.</p><p>No data is collected about the numbers of offenders who are required to undertake particular programmes or other interventions as part of the terms of their release licences. All offenders, whether or not managed under MAPPA, will undertake some interventions intended to address their offending behaviour and reduce re-offending. The choice of intervention will be tailored to the individual offender’s needs.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>Admissions to Approved Premises September 2012 – August 2014</strong></p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Month</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>MAPPA offenders admitted to Approved Premises</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Sep 2012</p></td><td><p>776</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Oct 2012</p></td><td><p>883</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Nov 2012</p></td><td><p>950</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Dec 2012</p></td><td><p>741</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Jan 2013</p></td><td><p>799</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Feb 2013</p></td><td><p>747</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Mar 2103</p></td><td><p>828</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Apr 2013</p></td><td><p>857</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>May 2013</p></td><td><p>931</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Jun 2013</p></td><td><p>847</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Jul 2013</p></td><td><p>963</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Aug 2013</p></td><td><p>901</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Sep 2013</p></td><td><p>911</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Oct 2013</p></td><td><p>837</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Nov 2013</p></td><td><p>842</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Dec 2013</p></td><td><p>798</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Jan 2014</p></td><td><p>853</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Feb 2014</p></td><td><p>801</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Mar 2014</p></td><td><p>782</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Apr 2014</p></td><td><p>839</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>May 2014</p></td><td><p>831</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Jun 2014</p></td><td><p>803</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Jul 2014</p></td><td><p>852</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Aug 2014</p></td><td><p>842</p></td></tr></tbody></table> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 18/11/2014 15:58:32 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/11/2014 answer text <p /> <p>Lend Lease won a competition for the Design and Construction of the New Prison at Wrexham, North Wales. The Design and Construction arrangements under the Partnering Agreement with Lend Lease are divided into three separate contracts. The first contract is for the design development of the prison, the second is for pre-commencement enabling works and the third contract is for the construction of the prison. To date the first two of these contracts have been entered into and the aim is to sign the construction contract in January 2015. The forms of contract used do not include 'penalties' for early termination of the contractor's employment, however, they do require the MoJ to pay the total amount properly due to the constructor for the value of all materials, goods, equipment and any other constructor’s reasonable costs incurred prior to the cancellation of the contract, including the costs of properly protecting and securing the site following the notice of termination. The cost of early termination of any of these contracts is therefore dependant upon the timing of the issue of a termination notice.</p> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 18/11/2014 17:46:45 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/11/2014 answer text <p>There were a total of 70 adult prisons which had one or more directly employed Muslim chaplain on 30 June 2014, representing 65% of all adult establishments. 14 establishments in the youth secure estate had one or more directly employed Muslim Chaplain on 30 June 2014, representing 93% of the establishments.

There are <del class="ministerial">393 imams employed across the prison estate, and the majority of establishments have access to Muslim Chaplains even if they don’t have a directly employed Muslim Chaplain attached to the establishment.</del><ins class="ministerial">100 imams employed across the prison estate and additionally over 100 Muslim Chaplains appointed on a sessional basis. All prisons have multi faith chaplaincy teams to provide and enable religious and pastoral care. These teams invariably include at least one Muslim Chaplain to provide for the religious needs of the Muslim prisoners. There are however one or two prisons where it has not yet been possible to appoint a Muslim Chaplain and the Muslim Adviser is working to appoint these. Where possible, an existing Muslim Chaplain, or one of the Muslim Chaplaincy HQ Advisers, aim to lead the prayers in those prisons on an occasional basis.</ins></p> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 18/11/2014 17:53:50 question first ministerially corrected 08/12/2014 14:37:24 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous previous answer version 28636 answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous
