answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/06/2014 answer text <p /> <p /> <p>The information regarding how many prisons operated on half regime during (a) January, (b) February, (c) March, (d) April and (e) May 2014, is not collated centrally. The term ‘half regime' is not used in prison establishments, and is unlikely to be interpreted consistently. The processes required to collect this data would incur disproportionate costs.</p> answering member constituency Kenilworth and Southam answering member printed Jeremy Wright question first answered 18/06/2014 12:37:07 answering member 1560 label Biography information for Sir Jeremy Wright

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/06/2014 answer text <p /> <p /> <p>Contracts with new Community Rehabilitation Companies (CRCs) formed as part of our Transforming Rehabilitation market competition will be used to ensure that the Department's Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) obligations are met. This is in line with recommendations from the Justice Select Committee and current Government policy that emphasis should be placed on the use of contracts to maintain transparency, rather than a formal extension of the FOIA to private providers.</p><p> </p><p>A Code of Practice will be issued later this year to remind public authorities of their obligations under FOIA in relation to information held by contractors. This will encourage public authorities and contractors to go beyond the minimum FOIA requirements, and provide a wider range of information than that which is within scope of FOIA. We will ensure a commitment to transparency in the operations of the new providers is maintained.</p> answering member constituency Kenilworth and Southam answering member printed Jeremy Wright question first answered 17/06/2014 13:34:11 answering member 1560 label Biography information for Sir Jeremy Wright
