<p>We are unable to provide data on the number of people on probation who have been
assessed as eligible for the Building Better Relationships programme (BBR) or who
are waiting for a place on that programme as of 23 April 2024 without incurring disproportionate
cost. We are also unable to provide the number of available places on the BBR programme
for people on probation in 2024-25 without incurring disproportionate cost. This information
is not collated and recorded centrally. Regions collect their own management information
and waiting lists vary with average waiting times for BBR between one and five months.
Each region manages their own accredited programme referrals and allocation of places
is based on risk and order expiry date.</p><p>We are unable to provide data on the
number of filled custodial places on the Building Better Relationships (BBR) programme
in 2023-24 at this time as to do so would breach official statistics publication rules
outlined in the Code of Practice for Statistics as they will form a subset of future
published statistics. Data for 2023-2024 will be published in the Prison Education
and Accredited Programme Statistics report on 26 September 2024.</p><p>There are 210
places available on the BBR programme for people in custody for 2024-25. This is subject
to review related to changes in both the demand for different programmes, and the
transition to new programmes being introduced in-year.</p><p> </p>
