answer text <p>a) The decline in the number of rape and serious sexual offences reaching court and being charged and prosecuted has, rightly, been the subject of public scrutiny and concern. It is essential that we grasp this issue, which is why the Criminal Justice Board (CJB) has committed to a cross-government end-to-end review of the Criminal Justice System’s (CJS) response to serious sexual violence and rape where the victim is over 18. We have established a Sub-Group of the CJB to oversee this review.</p><p> </p><p>The review is now well underway. The Cabinet Office have concluded initial analysis to identify key areas that merit further investigation. We are now gathering evidence and data from key groups and agencies across the CJS to enable us to better understand how handling and outcomes for rape cases could be improved. We continue to engage regularly with specialist stakeholders and victim organisations to ensure that the victim experience is central to our work.</p><p> </p><p>We have committed to publish a cross-system action plan at the conclusion of the review in Spring 2020. In efforts to accelerate the review, we will develop a set of interim recommendations before the end of the year.</p><p> </p><p>b) The review is being conducted by a cross-Government team comprised of officials from the Home Office, Ministry of Justice, Attorney General’s Office and Crown Prosecution Service, with support from the National Policing Lead for Adult Sexual Offences.</p><p> </p><p>c) Rape is a horrendous crime. It is essential that victims of rape have access to support when and where they need it most. In March this year we increased funding available to these essential services by 10% - up to £8m per year and totalling £24m over the next three years. This funding ensures that, for the first time, that there are government-funded services in all 42 of the country’s Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) areas. This is in addition to the £68m we allocate to PCCs to locally deliver support services for victims of crime, including for victims of sexual violence.</p>

answer text <p>Sport and physical activity in prison can help to build prisoner’s confidence, provide purposeful activity and support engagement with rehabilitation when prisoners are preparing for release. There are measures in place to monitor the effectiveness and participation levels of physical education (PE) across the prison estate, and the standards of sports and activities are monitored by Physical Education Managers (PEM). I have attached available data in relation to prisoner participation levels over the last 10 years. Unfortunately, data for 2011 – 2012 is not available.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Our response to Professor Rosie Meek's independent review of sport and physical activity sets out some of the work we are doing to improve provision of sport and physical activity education in the secure youth estate. That response can be found here: <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/733311/a-sporting-chance-govt-response.pdf" target="_blank">https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/733311/a-sporting-chance-govt-response.pdf</a>. Her Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) also recently conducted a strategic review of PE in prisons which examined current delivery, and measured delivery effectiveness against specifications. It also considered how current PE delivery meets the needs of prisoners, staff, and the emerging requirements from prison reform initiatives. We hope to publish these findings in due course. HMPPS does not separately identify spending associated with sports programmes. The information in relation to the amount spent in 2009 and 2017 could only be obtained at disproportionate cost</p><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>Prisoner participation levels from data available – Physical Education </strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td colspan="5"><p><strong>2017 -

answer text <p>Sport and physical activity in prison can help to build prisoner’s confidence, provide purposeful activity and support engagement with rehabilitation when prisoners are preparing for release. There are measures in place to monitor the effectiveness and participation levels of physical education (PE) across the prison estate, and the standards of sports and activities are monitored by Physical Education Managers (PEM). I have attached available data in relation to prisoner participation levels over the last 10 years. Unfortunately, data for 2011 – 2012 is not available.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Our response to Professor Rosie Meek's independent review of sport and physical activity sets out some of the work we are doing to improve provision of sport and physical activity education in the secure youth estate. That response can be found here: <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/733311/a-sporting-chance-govt-response.pdf" target="_blank">https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/733311/a-sporting-chance-govt-response.pdf</a>. Her Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) also recently conducted a strategic review of PE in prisons which examined current delivery, and measured delivery effectiveness against specifications. It also considered how current PE delivery meets the needs of prisoners, staff, and the emerging requirements from prison reform initiatives. We hope to publish these findings in due course. HMPPS does not separately identify spending associated with sports programmes. The information in relation to the amount spent in 2009 and 2017 could only be obtained at disproportionate cost</p><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>Prisoner participation levels from data available – Physical Education </strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td colspan="5"><p><strong>2017 -
