uin	191080
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/07/2023 answer text <p>The Local Leadership and Integration Fund (LLIF) provided grant funding to 11 local leaders and agencies. It was designed to recognise that the issues experienced by those leaving prison are often specific to the local area and therefore was designed to support local leaders to work together in partnerships to develop innovative ways to tackle reoffending that were tailored to their localities.</p><p>Evaluation is a cornerstone of LLIF. We are conducting a process evaluation to understand more about how projects are delivered at a local level. Where design and project participant sample size allow, we are also conducting impact and economic evaluations. These will demonstrate the impacts of each project and the value for money. Findings will also help to generate new, tailored approaches that can be scaled up to help shape future policy. Results will be published once the evaluation is finalised.</p> answering member constituency East Hampshire answering member printed Damian Hinds question first answered 04/07/2023 09:53:29 answering member 3969 label Biography information for Damian Hinds
