As with any large data system, there are also likely to be some inaccuracies.</p><p> </p><p>Over the period of Reform, we expect the shape and size of the organisation to change. As part of this we are reducing our staffing levels and expect the future skills of our people to change. The HMCTS workforce strategy during this period is to increase the capability of our staff, whilst simultaneously increasing our workforce flexibility through the increased usage of contingent labour. This is in order to reduce redundancy costs and protect the jobs of longer serving, permanent staff. The required staffing level needed across each of our HMCTS sites is monitored closely, and proactive recruitment undertaken to ensure these levels are maintained.</p>

That is why we are working to reform youth custodial provision through the development of secure schools, a new type of secure provision for children, and delivering a wide-ranging change programme in existing youth custody sites including workforce reform, infrastructure changes and a new approach to behaviour management and education and healthcare delivery. Alongside this we are driving forward reform of the criminal records regime, considering how we can improve youth sentencing and working to explain or address disproportionality across the youth justice system.</p>

answer text <p>As stated in the previous answer information is collected locally on a young person’s entry into custody, and may be updated over the course of their custodial episode. This information helps to inform staff in relation to the children in their immediate care.</p><p>As part of their assessment Youth Offending Teams (YOTs) record a child’s accommodation status and seek to address any issues relating to this. The Youth Justice Board is currently undertaking work to improve its own data collection and a child’s accommodation status will be included in this. The Ministry of Justice, however, does not hold a national coordinating role in this regard, so there is currently no essential business reason to collate this centrally. It is the general duty of every local authority to safeguard and promote the welfare of children within their area who are in need by providing a range and level of services, including accommodation, appropriate to those children’s needs.</p><p>We believe that everyone should have a safe and suitable home to live; having somewhere to live gives people a stable platform from which to access health services, hold down a job and reduces the likelihood of them reoffending. In keeping with this the Government published its Rough Sleeping Strategy in August 2018, launching a £100 million initiative to reduce and ultimately eliminate rough sleeping across England.</p>

In addition, several prisons across the estate have been operating with reduced capacity. This is due to a range of reasons, such as enabling maintenance to be performed and action taken in response to Urgent Notifications triggered by the Chief Inspector.</p><p> </p><p>The 10 Prisons Project aims to reduce violence in ten of our most challenging prisons by reducing the supply of drugs; restoring basic decency and providing the training and support for prison officers to challenge the behaviour that drives violence. The project received an initial £10 million funding to improve security and decency, and bolster leadership capability over a 12-month period.</p>
