<p> </p><p> </p><p>The deployment of staff between prisons on detached duty is a regular
and normal part of prison resourcing. It allows staff to be allocated from prisons
with the capacity to provide them, to those where additional staffing is required.
A nationally co-ordinated detached duty scheme has been operating since 21 October
2013.</p><p> </p><p>The number of staff available /maximum number of staff available
for detached duty at any one time is a matter for operational judgement and takes
account of overall staff numbers, levels of sickness, prisoner numbers and the regime
and security requirements.</p><p> </p><p>The average headcount of Band 3 staff who
worked on detached duty during December 2013 was 190, this represents 1.3% of all
Band 3 officers. The table below contains a list of prisons broken down by the full-time-equivalent
staff allocated and grade, during December 2013.</p><p> </p><p>Some allocations outside
of the national scheme continued after October 2013 but are not included in the information
provided. London region particularly allocated staff within their own region. Information
is collected on the staffing allocated. On occasions the resource is not actually
deployed due to changes in local circumstances.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Table: List
