uin	HL3276
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/12/2016 answer text <p>Safety is our number one priority<strong> – </strong>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. In November the Secretary of State announced an extra 2500 additional prison officers to tackle safety in the estate. The table below sets out the average number of prison officers on detached duty by month in 2015 and 2016:</p><table><tbody><tr><td colspan="2"><p>2015</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Jan</p></td><td><p>254</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Feb</p></td><td><p>254</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Mar</p></td><td><p>217</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Apr</p></td><td><p>194</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>May</p></td><td><p>268</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Jun</p></td><td><p>269</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Jul</p></td><td><p>250</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Aug</p></td><td><p>201</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Sep</p></td><td><p>195</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Oct</p></td><td><p>191</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Nov</p></td><td><p>179</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Dec</p></td><td><p>192</p></td></tr><tr><td colspan="2"><p>2016</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Jan</p></td><td><p>178</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Feb</p></td><td><p>188</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Mar</p></td><td><p>168</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Apr</p></td><td><p>170</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>May</p></td><td><p>175</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>June</p></td><td><p>164</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Jul</p></td><td><p>188</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Aug</p></td><td><p>201</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Sep</p></td><td><p>199</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Keen of Elie question first answered 06/12/2016 17:39:11 answering member 4538 label Biography information for Lord Keen of Elie

question text	To ask Her Majesty’s Government what was the average food budget per prisoner per day in prisons in England and Wales for each of the last five years for which figures are available.
tabling member printed	Lord Bradley
uin	HL3277
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/11/2016 answer text <p>The National Offender Management Service (NOMS), on behalf of the MoJ Department, is responsible for allocating food budgets to all adult public sector prisons across England and Wales. There are separate budget arrangements in place for prisons within the Young Peoples Estate and the private sector. The table below shows the allocated food budget for financial years 2012-13 to 2015-16:</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Fiscal Year</p></td><td><p>Allocated Budget</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012/13</p></td><td><p>£2.10</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2013/14</p></td><td><p>£1.96</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2014/15</p></td><td><p>£2.02</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2015/16</p></td><td><p>£2.02</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>For 2016-17, non-pay budgets, including an element for prisoner food, were based on a standard unit cost by prison type, in place of the previous set of standardised budgets. This gave Governors more freedom in allocating non-pay budgets, with the £2.02 figure for prisoner food retained as a guide.</p> answering member printed Lord Keen of Elie question first answered 30/11/2016 17:49:53 answering member 4538 label Biography information for Lord Keen of Elie
