<p> </p><p> </p><p>Any prisoner who wishes to raise concerns about radicalisation
will be able to raise those concerns with a member of staff, in person, or anonymously.
Prisoners are also able to raise concerns through other channels such as the IMB,
their MP or the Prison and Probation Ombudsman. Any member of staff who has such concerns
can submit an intelligence report or speak to a colleague, manager, their security
department or specialist staff.</p><p> </p><p>Prison staff are required to report
on a wide range of behaviours linked to extremist motivated activities some of which
could represent radicalisation. Such reports are considered by a prison-based multi
agency panel to help access the motivation for the reported behaviour and to direct
further action to develop the information or to intervene with the prisoner. Where
appropriate these reports are escalated to regional or national level.</p><p> </p><p>To
establish the number of reports submitted would therefore require examining the records
of all prisoners in the system which could only be done at significant disproportionate
cost.</p>
