Following a financial assessment, those who can afford to will contribute towards the cost of their care.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>People receiving care and support in care homes will be required to contribute to the costs from their income, but local authorities are required to leave them with a minimum amount of income for personal expenses. This Personal Expenses Allowance (PEA) is currently set at £24.40 per week. It will rise to £24.90 per week in April. Local authorities have discretion to set a higher PEA in certain circumstances. People above state pension age who have income above the threshold for receiving the savings credit element of Pension Credit will retain a further £5.75 per week for a single person or £8.60 per week for a couple.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Where people received local authority support with care and support in their own home the local authority is required to ensure that their income is not reduced bellow basic levels of Income Support or the Guaranteed Credit of Pension Credit plus a buffer of 25%.</p><p> </p>

answer text <p>Discipline Procedures are central to the maintenance of a safe custodial environment. They are provided for by the Young Offender Institution (YOI) Rules which require adjudications to be conducted lawfully, fairly and justly, and for young people to have a full opportunity to hear what is alleged against them and to present their case. A possible outcome of an adjudication hearing is for a young person to be removed from their wing or living unit for a period of up to 21 days under YOI R 60 (1) (g). Removal from unit means that the young person is relocated to other accommodation within the establishment but otherwise continues to participate, as far as possible, in normal regime activities. No young people were given an adjudication award of removal from unit at Feltham in 2014.</p><p> </p><p>Young people in custody are some of the most vulnerable people in society and their safety and welfare is our highest priority. We aim to use segregation as little as possible, but there are occasions when behaviour is so challenging and violent that it is necessary to remove a young person from association in order to guarantee their safety and that of others.</p><p> </p><p>Young people detained in under 18 public sector Young Offender Institutions (YOIs) must only be segregated when absolutely necessary. This may be to protect the safety of persons living in, working in or visiting an establishment, for their own protection, for a short period pending an adjudication hearing or to maintain order and discipline. Young people must be segregated under the proper authority as provided by the YOI Rules. Any decision to segregate a young person is subject to regular review and a range of safeguarding measures are in place to ensure appropriate oversight of their care. There are careful limits placed on the length of time for which young people can be separated and they cannot be segregated as a punishment.</p><p>Table A below shows the ethnicity of young people located in the Care and Separation Unit (CSU) at Feltham in each month of 2014.</p><p> </p><p>Table A</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p>Jan</p></td><td><p>Feb</p></td><td><p>Mar</p></td><td><p>Apr</p></td><td><p>May</p></td><td><p>June</p></td><td><p>July</p></td><td><p>Aug</p></td><td><p>Sept</p></td><td><p>Oct</p></td><td><p>Nov</p></td><td><p>Dec</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Asian</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>2</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Black</p></td><td><p>16</p></td><td><p>14</p></td><td><p>23</p></td><td><p>24</p></td><td><p>6</p></td><td><p>7</p></td><td><p>9</p></td><td><p>10</p></td><td><p>17</p></td><td><p>45</p></td><td><p>17</p></td><td><p>20</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Mixed</p></td><td><p>8</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>6</p></td><td><p>6</p></td><td><p>7</p></td><td><p>6</p></td><td><p>11</p></td><td><p>5</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>White British</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>8</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>6</p></td><td><p>11</p></td><td><p>11</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>14</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>White Irish</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>White Other</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Other</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Not Stated</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>We are unable to give a definitive reason for the dips and spikes in figures around particular months in the table above as it is normal for the numbers to fluctuate.

answer text <p>Discipline Procedures are central to the maintenance of a safe custodial environment. They are provided for by the Young Offender Institution (YOI) Rules which require adjudications to be conducted lawfully, fairly and justly, and for young people to have a full opportunity to hear what is alleged against them and to present their case. A possible outcome of an adjudication hearing is for a young person to be removed from their wing or living unit for a period of up to 21 days under YOI R 60 (1) (g). Removal from unit means that the young person is relocated to other accommodation within the establishment but otherwise continues to participate, as far as possible, in normal regime activities. No young people were given an adjudication award of removal from unit at Feltham in 2014.</p><p> </p><p>Young people in custody are some of the most vulnerable people in society and their safety and welfare is our highest priority. We aim to use segregation as little as possible, but there are occasions when behaviour is so challenging and violent that it is necessary to remove a young person from association in order to guarantee their safety and that of others.</p><p> </p><p>Young people detained in under 18 public sector Young Offender Institutions (YOIs) must only be segregated when absolutely necessary. This may be to protect the safety of persons living in, working in or visiting an establishment, for their own protection, for a short period pending an adjudication hearing or to maintain order and discipline. Young people must be segregated under the proper authority as provided by the YOI Rules. Any decision to segregate a young person is subject to regular review and a range of safeguarding measures are in place to ensure appropriate oversight of their care. There are careful limits placed on the length of time for which young people can be separated and they cannot be segregated as a punishment.</p><p>Table A below shows the ethnicity of young people located in the Care and Separation Unit (CSU) at Feltham in each month of 2014.</p><p> </p><p>Table A</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p>Jan</p></td><td><p>Feb</p></td><td><p>Mar</p></td><td><p>Apr</p></td><td><p>May</p></td><td><p>June</p></td><td><p>July</p></td><td><p>Aug</p></td><td><p>Sept</p></td><td><p>Oct</p></td><td><p>Nov</p></td><td><p>Dec</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Asian</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>2</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Black</p></td><td><p>16</p></td><td><p>14</p></td><td><p>23</p></td><td><p>24</p></td><td><p>6</p></td><td><p>7</p></td><td><p>9</p></td><td><p>10</p></td><td><p>17</p></td><td><p>45</p></td><td><p>17</p></td><td><p>20</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Mixed</p></td><td><p>8</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>6</p></td><td><p>6</p></td><td><p>7</p></td><td><p>6</p></td><td><p>11</p></td><td><p>5</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>White British</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>8</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>6</p></td><td><p>11</p></td><td><p>11</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>14</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>White Irish</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>White Other</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Other</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Not Stated</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>We are unable to give a definitive reason for the dips and spikes in figures around particular months in the table above as it is normal for the numbers to fluctuate. However, we know that this is consistent with data on assaults from the establishment which may be a contributory factor. We also know that in October there were a number of multi perpetrator assaults which led to a large number of young people being segregated for short periods of time in the immediate aftermath.</p><p> </p><p>Information on the number of young people located on Feltham’s CSU who have an identified mental health condition, and information on the number of young people subject to Feltham’s single unlock policy, is not collected centrally. In order to provide this information we would need to check individual records and this could only be done at disproportionate cost.</p><p> </p>
