answer text <p>The Government publishes quarterly statistics on violence in prison, and a more detailed annual breakdown, and both are available at:</p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/safety-in-custody-quarterly-update-to-december-2018" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/safety-in-custody-quarterly-update-to-december-2018</a></p><p>I regret that the specific figures that you seek could be obtained only at disproportionate cost, as staff who were the victims of assaults and subsequently departed from HMPPS could only be identified by reading every individual incident report (of which there are nearly 50,000 in the period in which you are interested) and matching the names of those involved with HR records.</p><p> </p><p>The Government is taking unprecedented action to improve safety in prisons. We have recruited over 4,700 more prison officers since October 2016, and we now have the greatest number in post since early 2012. The Challenge, Support and Intervention Plan case management process for prisoners at risk of violence has been mandated for all prisons to help staff to manage violent prisoners and those identified as posing a raised risk of being violent.</p><p> </p><p>We are investing an extra £70 million to improve safety, security and decency, and equipping officers with PAVA incapacitant spray and body-worn cameras to help prevent serious harm to staff and prisoners when dealing with violent incidents. We are improving perimeter security and introducing new x-ray scanners, drug-detection dogs and dedicated search teams to address the supply of drugs that we know are fuelling much of the violence in custody.</p>

answer text <p>On 8 March the sale of the former Holloway prison site to social housing group Peabody in partnership with London Square Ltd was announced. The sale will help drive forward the Government’s commitment to invest in our prison estate, including to replace ageing prisons with modern, purpose-built establishments, which improve rehabilitation and create safe and secure environments. We have worked closely with the local authority to ensure the amount of affordable housing on the site meets the planning requirement and we are pleased that the proposed development will achieve this aim, while also giving best value to the taxpayer. The money, which was received as a single payment, from this sale forms part of the Department’s overall budget and so is supporting our initiatives to deliver safer prisons which better support resettlement and ultimately reduce reoffending.</p><p>The plans for the women’s centre were set out in the proposals for the site announced by Peabody and London Square who are leading on this important initiative and the development of the site.</p>
