answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/04/2019 answer text <p>There is a strong case to abolish sentences of six months or less, with some exceptions. We are therefore exploring options to restrict the use of short custodial sentences, but we have not at this stage reached any conclusions.</p><p>There is persuasive evidence showing community sentences, in certain circumstances, are more effective than short custodial sentences in reducing reoffending. The MoJ study ‘The impact of short custodial sentences, community orders and suspended sentence orders on re-offending’ published in 2015 found that over a 1-year follow up period, a higher proportion of people re-offended having been sentenced to custody of under 12 months without supervision on release than other similar people given community orders.</p><p>Unless we tackle the underlying causes of offending, we cannot protect the public from being victims of crime. Effective community orders can address offenders’ behaviour, answer their mental health and alcohol or drug misuse needs, and provide reparation for the benefit of the wider community.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart question first answered 01/04/2019 22:29:30 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart

uin	236997
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/04/2019 answer text <p>We recognise that shoplifting is not a victimless crime. It causes cost and disruption to businesses, as well as damage to communities and consumers. We encourage all victims, including shop workers, to report these crimes to the police so that they can be recorded and dealt with accordingly.</p><p> </p><p>Out of Court Disposals are one important tool available in addressing shop theft – they allow the police to deal quickly and proportionately with low-level offending. Where an Out of Court Disposal is appropriate, we encourage the use of disposals which have a condition attached (be that rehabilitative, reparative, punitive or restrictive). This can achieve rapid compensation and/or divert vulnerable offenders with substance misuse or mental health issues into rehabilitative services to address the root causes of their offending behaviour.</p><p> </p><p>We pay attention to trends and changes in the use of Out of Court Disposals on an ongoing basis.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart question first answered 01/04/2019 16:58:47 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/04/2019 answer text <p>Protecting the health and safety of our staff and prisoners is of the utmost importance. We take all reported incidents seriously and work hard to mitigate any risks that staff or prisoners face. Information on ambulance attendance at prisons could only be obtained from prison records at disproportionate costs as central records are not kept by Her Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS). HMPPS continues to develop with NHS and Public Health partners the use of data and evidence to support both health and justice outcomes for people in prison.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart question first answered 01/04/2019 16:42:26 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/03/2019 answer text <p>Community Rehabilitation Company (CRC) contracts require each CRC to maintain a sufficient level of staff and ensure that its workforce is competent and adequately trained. CRCs have the authority to manage staff numbers as per their business and operating models. Robust assurance of performance is provided through operational contract management backed up by regular Operational Assurance audits, and Internal Audit activity as required. There is regular monitoring of service delivery, including a focus on validating published performance management information. CRC performance information showing services levels against a range of measures is released quarterly as part of the Community Performance Quarterly Management Information.</p><p> </p><p>We take seriously concerns raised by Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Probation (HMIP) and others over staffing levels, particularly for resettlement work with prisoners nearing the end of their custodial term. The contract changes we agreed with CRCs last year include £22m per year in additional funding for Through The Gate services, which will mean approximately 500 more staff working with offenders in prison after April 2019. We are currently proposing further changes to probation after the existing CRC contracts come to an end in 2020. The proposed changes include measures to ensure the probation workforce is better supported to build their careers and deliver a high-quality service to offenders, such as introducing a standard training framework for staff and a national professional register to recognise the specialism and value of probation work.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart question first answered 28/03/2019 16:56:22 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/03/2019 answer text <p>Under the Probation Serious Further Offence (SFO) Review Procedures, the National Probation Service (NPS) or Community Rehabilitation Company (CRC) must undertake a review where an offender under statutory supervision in the community is charged with a qualifying offence – a “notification”. Not every notification results in a conviction for an SFO. The NPS or CRC has three months to complete a review and will complete each review unless charges are dropped beforehand.</p><p>SFOs are rare. Fewer than 0.5% of offenders under statutory supervision are convicted of a serious further offence.</p><p>No SFO reviews have been reopened since 2010.</p><p>Data regarding the number of SFO reviews that cited excessive workload as a contributory factor to that offence are not collated as part of the SFO review process and could be obtained only at disproportionate cost.</p><p>Data regarding the number of SFO reviews that cited inadequate management supervision as a contributory factor to that offence are not collated as part of the SFO review process and could be obtained only at disproportionate cost.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart grouped question UIN 236512 236514 question first answered 29/03/2019 14:58:25 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart
