answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/07/2016 answer text <p>Hate crimes are criminal behaviour and may be prosecuted in England and Wales using the full range of criminal offences. Sections 29 to 32 of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 set out racially and religiously aggravated offences covering wounding, assault, damage, harassment (including stalking) and threatening/abusive behaviour which carry higher sentences than equivalent non-aggravated offences. Sections 18 to 23 of the Public Order Act 1986 contain offences of stirring up racial hatred and sections 29B to 29G contain offences of stirring up hatred on grounds of religion or sexual orientation. There is also an offence of racialist chanting at football matches in section 3 of the Football Offences Act 1991.</p><p> </p><p>Sections 145 and 146 of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 make it an aggravating factor for the purposes of sentencing if at the time of committing the offence, or immediately before, the offender demonstrated hostility towards the victim on the basis of their race, religion, disability, sexual orientation or transgender identity or that the offence was motivated by hostility towards persons who had that characteristic. Under paragraph 5(2)(g) of Schedule 21 to the 2003 Act., murder motivated by hostility on the grounds of any of these characteristics attracts a life sentence with a 30 year starting point for the minimum term.</p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning question first answered 15/07/2016 13:03:10 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/07/2016 answer text <p>With the exception of the National Offender Management Service (NOMS), the Ministry of Justice does not make any additional incentive payments to staff for working overtime in addition to overtime payments or time off in lieu.</p><p> </p><p>NOMS does not generally pay additional incentives (over and above standard hourly rates) to staff to work overtime. In 2015 however, the Director of Public Sector Prisons approved the introduction of a bespoke scheme under which Prison Officers were invited to enter into contracts to work a set number of additional hours over a 14 week period.</p><p> </p><p>Staff who enter into these contracts are paid a bonus at the end of the 14 week period after having completed the agreed number of additional hours. The level of bonus payments, which are funded from existing NOMS budgets, is set at either £150 or £275 depending on the agreed number of additional hours. To provide details of the number of staff who have received such payments within the time available would incur disproportionate cost.</p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning question first answered 12/07/2016 14:41:21 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning
