<p>We are committed on an ongoing basis to improving collection and publication of
data to identify and tackle any disparities in the Criminal Justice System. Since
publication of The Lammy Review (into the treatment of, and outcomes for, Black, Asian
and Minority Ethnic individuals in the Criminal Justice System) we have published
brand new ethnicity data or analysis in 16 releases.</p><p>Currently HM Prison and
Probation Service do collect data on religious beliefs via prisoner records and for
offenders in the community. The Offender Equality Annual Report(1) provides religious
belief breakdown data on prison population, gender, Incentives and Earned Privileges
status, those on Mother & Baby units and adjudications charged and proven. Prison
population by religious belief is also published in Offender Management Statistics
quarterly (2).</p><p>HM Courts and Tribunal Service does not currently hold data on
religious identity.</p><p>(1) <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/760093/hmpps-offender-equalities-2017-18.pdf"
