answer text <p>The table below provides the number of people killed by offenders who were at the time on licence for an earlier homicide offence, for which they had served a prison sentence and been released. As they were on licence, when they were charged with a new offence of killing [homicide], it would have generated a formal serious further offence (SFO) notification to HM Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS), and the number in each calendar year reflects the year in which HMPPS received the notification. The answer interprets homicide to include offences of murder, manslaughter, death by dangerous driving and death by careless driving when under the influence of drink or drugs.</p><p> </p><p>Data are not available on offenders with a previous conviction for homicide who had completed their sentence and associated statutory probation supervision by probation and then went on to commit a further homicide.</p><p> </p><p>SFOs are rare. Fewer than 0.5% of offenders under statutory supervision are convicted of serious further offences. Nonetheless every single serious further offence is taken extremely seriously, and in all cases a review is carried out to identify any lessons for the better management of future cases.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Year SFO notification received</p></td><td><p>Total number of people killed in a SFO by someone convicted of homicide offences at both index offence and SFO</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2009</p></td><td><p>5</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2010</p></td><td><p>3</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2011</p></td><td><p>3</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2013</p></td><td><p>3</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2014</p></td><td><p>3</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2015</p></td><td><p>3</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2016</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2017</p></td><td><p>3</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2018</p></td><td><p>3</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2019<sup>[1]</sup></p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><ol><li>We will publish SFO conviction data for 2019/20 in October 2021, therefore data for 2019 can only be provided for January, February and March.</li><li>Figures are based on conviction data that was produced in September 2020.</li><li>Data are derived from the date of SFO notification to HMPPS</li><li>This figure only includes convictions for serious further offences that have been notified to the national SFO Team, HMPPS.</li><li>The data provided are provisional figures subject to change when any outstanding cases are concluded at court.</li><li>The data also includes cases where the offender committed suicide or died prior to the trial, where a Court has subsequently ruled that they were responsible.</li></ol><p>Data Sources and Quality.

answer text <p>UK citizens are not normally detained in prison without charge. The number of UK citizens on remand awaiting trial as of 30 June 2017 was 5,242. It is not possible to state the numbers of these individuals who do not have a date set for trial because this data is not held centrally and could only be obtained at disproportionate cost.</p><p> </p><p>Individuals who are subject to extradition for charges brought by other jurisdictions can be held in prison pending extradition. As at 30 June 2017, the number of people in prison pending extradition was 105, of which 84 were non-UK EU nationals.</p><p>Foreign National Offenders (FNOs) who have served a sentence may continue to be held in prison beyond their sentence end date under immigration powers pending removal from the United Kingdom. As at 30 June 2017, the number of FNOs held in prison under immigration powers was 448 (including 122 non-UK EU nationals).</p><p> </p><p>The Government is absolutely committed to increasing the number of FNOs removed from our prisons, and any foreign national who comes to our country and is sentenced to prison should be in no doubt of our determination to deport them. Increasing removals is one of our top priorities and all FNOs sentenced to custody are referred to the Home Office at the earliest opportunity to be considered for deportation.</p>

answer text <p>When a fixed penalty notice is issued offenders have 28 days in which to pay the amount ordered. No enforcement action is taken during this period but if the offender fails to pay within this time the fixed penalty notice is increased by 50% and registered as a court fine. HM Courts and Tribunals Service can then take the same enforcement steps as for any court ordered fine.</p> more like this

answer text <p /> <p /> <p>A life sentence is mandatory on conviction for murder and a whole life order starting point applies to a murder by an offender previously convicted of murder.
