answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/01/2015 answer text <p /> <p>Please see the attached table showing financial penalties for 2013/2014 and quarter 1 of 2014/2015</p><p>It is important to note that performance points are essentially about operational efficiency, and at no point has public safety been at risk.</p><p>The Contract for HMP Altcourse sets out a strict performance framework, consisting of prescriptive performance targets and performance points to be levied against the Contractor for failure to meet prison standards. Performance points are proportionate to the severity of failure and, depending on the total number of points accrued for the performance quarter or year, liquidated damages are applied against the Contractor in accordance with the Contract.</p><p>It is important to stress that the Contractor’s performance is monitored and managed closely by MoJ staff on a daily basis and failure by the Contractor to meet performance targets results in performance points being applied. Any emerging or sustained performance failures are discussed in detail with the Contractor in order to rectify performance shortfalls as quickly as possible.</p><p>It is fair to say that HMP Altcourse achieve the majority of their contractual targets with proportionately low levels of performance points and financial remedies applied as a result.</p> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 06/01/2015 15:06:30 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous attachment 1 file name 218218 - Table.xls title financial penalties 2013/14 - quarter 1 of 2014/15

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/12/2014 answer text <p>There are no plans to return HMP Altcourse to public ownership. As a contracted-out prison, Altcourse has generally been a high-performing establishment. In the most recent performance ratings (published 31 July 2014), it was rated Level 3 (out of four levels, of which Level 4 is the highest). The National Offender Management Service is working closely with the contractor to ensure that issues in relation to recent events at the prison are fully and swiftly addressed, and will continue to monitor the prison’s progress closely.</p> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 15/12/2014 15:41:15 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous
