answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/03/2015 answer text <p>The number of violent criminals in our prisons has increased by 40% in the past 10 years. A specialised system of restraint known as control and restraint (C&amp;R) has been developed over many years to ensure that prisoners can be controlled with minimum risk of injury to staff or prisoners. C&amp;R is a system of techniques used by a team of three officers as a last resort to bring a violent or refractory prisoner under control. Wherever possible staff should avoid the use of force and de-escalate the situation by persuasion or negotiation; if the techniques are applied then they are used for as short a time as possible. Healthcare staff examine all prisoners on whom force has been used.</p><p> </p><p>Violence in prisons is not tolerated; and assaults on our hardworking staff are unacceptable. That is why we have introduced a new protocol establishing that when there are serious assaults on prison staff, the perpetrators must be prosecuted unless there is a good reason why not. This will ensure that prisoners who attack staff are prosecuted and fully brought to justice. It will mean that more of the prisoners who assault staff will spend longer behind bars.</p><p> </p><p>All prisons submit a central monthly return providing the number of times force has been used in the prison with details of any injuries sustained. Central data identifies the number of individuals injured rather than the number of incidents where an injury occurred . Use of force incidents may involve multiple prisoners, for example, force used to separate a fight. To identify the number of incidents would require manual interrogation of use of force documentation held at establishments and could only be achieved at disproportionate cost.</p><p> </p><p>Central data only records whether an injury resulted in hospitalisation or not. To identify if the injuries sustained were minor or serious would also require manual interrogation of use of force documentation held at establishments and could only be achieved at disproportionate cost.</p><p> </p><p>The table below provides details of the number of prisoners hospitalised following an incident where force was used in contracted prisons.</p><p> </p><p><strong><br />

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/03/2015 answer text <p /> <p>Since 2010 MoJ has delivered major changes by reducing costs in the services we provide and seeking to improve the way we provide them. Our extensive reform programme, covering all areas of the justice system, including back office functions, has reduced net spend by £1.7bn, or 19% in real terms, in 2013-14 compared to 2010-11, and is expected to reduce by a total of over £3bn or 34% in real terms by 2015-16.</p><p>The Ministry of Justice has been working hard to deliver its commitments from the 2010 coalition agreement including major programmes such as Transforming Rehabilitation, which is now changing the lives of offenders.</p><p> </p><p>We have met our commitment to revolutionise rehabilitation by establishing a new National Probation Service and 21 Community Rehabilitation Companies, which are now up and running, supervising offenders. We have changed the law to ensure that every offender will receive rehabilitative support for at least a year after release from prison. The Offender Rehabilitation Act 2014 also introduces a new Rehabilitation Activity Requirement to aid in the rehabilitation of offenders in the community.</p><p> </p><p>We are reforming the prison system to create a fit-for-purpose, modern estate which provides accommodation at a much lower cost to the taxpayer. We are ensuring that the sentencing framework operates as efficiently and effectively as possible and delivers appropriate punishment of offenders, without compromising on public safety. We are continuing to transform the prison system, and we have announced the construction of a new prison in Wales. The construction of four new house blocks at established prisons will provide modern accommodation at a lower cost to the taxpayer, and three of these have already been completed.</p><p>We are transforming youth custody to create a more cost-effective system which ensures that young people are appropriately punished, while at the same time receiving the support and education required to turn away from a life of crime. We have legislated to create Secure Colleges and we have awarded new education contracts in Young Offender Institutions that will more than double the number of hours education young people receive.</p><p>We are creating a more affordable and sustainable Legal Aid system. The Legal Aid Transformation Programme was put in place after the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders (LASPO) Act came into force on 1 April 2013. Its aim is to examine the possibilities of further legal aid savings, including the concept of tendering to be a criminal legal aid provider, and to identify ways in which public confidence could be improved.</p><p>We have met our commitment to provide greater transparency by extending the scope of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to Academy schools and the Association of Chief Police Officers amongst others.</p><p>Only one policy from the 2010 Coalition Agreement, as set out in the ‘Programme for Government’ document, has not been implemented. The Coalition government made it clear from the outset that it would only extend anonymity in rape cases to defendants if there was clear and sound evidence to justify it. The proposal was not progressed. An announcement to this effect was made in November 2010.<br> <br></p> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 16/03/2015 17:33:07 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous
