answer text <p /> <p>Procedures governing the escort of prisoners are constantly under review to help reduce the risk of escape. In the four year period between April 2010 and March 2014 41 prisoners escaped from Prison Escort and Custody Services (PECS) supervision either from escort or at court. This compares to 62 escapes from PECS supervision in the 4 year period prior to April 2010.</p><p> </p><p>It is not possible to answer this specific question as data is not available to distinguish those prisoners unlawfully at large who had not previously been received into the custody of NOMS at the time of the escape.</p> more like this
