The existing power demand at HMP Springhill is already currently over capacity, therefore that site requires a power upgrade irrespective of the proposed expansion. No works already started relate to the proposed new prison currently undergoing planning.</p><p>The total commitment to date to UK Power Networks for this upgrade is £840,000 (including VAT).</p> answering member constituency East Hampshire answering member printed Damian Hinds question first answered 31/01/2023 17:28:01 answering member 3969 label Biography information for Damian Hinds

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/01/2023 answer text <ol start="1"><li><p>The Lord Chancellor and Lord Chief Justice are jointly responsible for judicial discipline. They are supported by the independent Judicial Conduct Investigations Office, which keeps a record of disciplinary findings made against Judicial Office Holders. Those records are kept indefinitely, and any disciplinary sanctions taken against Judicial Office Holders are published on the Judicial Conduct Investigations Office website. A subsequent change of gender and/name by a Judicial Office Holder would have no bearing on the retention of disciplinary records. Should a Judicial Office Holder with a published disciplinary sanction against them subsequently change their name, a note would be made to the published sanction which would identify this.</p></li></ol><ol start="2"><li><p>In relation to prison officers, processes are available to support the changing of an individual’s name and other characteristics within departmental HR records. Regardless of an individual’s gender or name, disciplinary records are retained in line with departmental document retention policies.</p></li></ol> answering member constituency Finchley and Golders Green answering member printed Mike Freer question first answered 30/01/2023 14:03:04 answering member 4004 label Biography information for Mike Freer
