question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, with reference to the Answer of 22 June 2015 to Question 2384, what proportion of young people in the custodial estate have had education, training and employment placements arranged as a result of (a) resettlement consortia and (b) the Turn Around to Work initiative since 2017.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/02/2018 answer text <p>The Turn Around to Work initiative was trialled in 2014<em>. </em>Thirty young people were identified as suitable for work placements and five completed the programme. The low numbers reflected the complex needs of young people leaving custody and the high level of support that both employers and young people needed to make a success of placements. This model did not therefore meet the needs of young people leaving custody. This project has now been discontinued.</p><p> </p><p>An evaluation of the resettlement consortia has recently been published and can be found at the following link: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/youth-justice-resettlement-consortia-a-process-evaluation" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/youth-justice-resettlement-consortia-a-process-evaluation</a></p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency South East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Lucy Frazer question first answered 02/02/2018 14:20:19 answering member 4517 label Biography information for Lucy Frazer
