answer text <p>When Community Rehabilitation Companies (CRCs) were under public ownership (from 1 June 2014 to 31 January 2015), we published workforce information on a quarterly basis. The final iteration of these statistics was published on 31 December 2014 and can be found at the following link: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/community-rehabilitation-companies-workforce-information-report-quarter-3-2014-to-2015.</p><p>Contracts with CRCs require each CRC to ensure that it employs a sufficient level of staff, and that its workforce is competent and adequately trained. We closely monitor and robustly manage providers to make sure they fulfil their contractual commitments to reduce reoffending, protect the public and provide value for money to the taxpayer.</p> more like this

answer text <p>We hold providers rigorously to account for their performance and take proportional action wherever they are falling short. Our contract management teams closely monitor and robustly manage providers to make sure they fulfil their contractual commitments to maintain service delivery, reduce reoffending, protect the public and provide value for money to the taxpayer. However, we cannot release the exact number of Service Credits each Community Rehabilitation Company (CRC) has had to pay as it is commercially sensitive information.</p><p> </p><p>Service Credits can be applied when providers do not meet the required standards. Service Credits are a payment made by the CRC back to the Government, as a means of compensating for services under the contract where the CRC fails to meet the contractual service levels expected.</p> more like this
