answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/10/2015 answer text <p>Starring up is the term used to define the process whereby young people under the age of 18 can be moved into the young adult estate prior to their eighteenth birthday. The starring up process can be used for a range of reasons, but past usage has mainly been in relating to the management of disruptive or violent behaviour or transfers to Mother and Baby Units.</p><br /><p>In practice, the starring up process is rarely used and then only in exceptional circumstances.</p><br /><p>No young person has been starred-up into the young adult estate since January 2014. Data in relation to the number of young people who were starred-up into the young adult estate in the three years prior to that, broken down by the establishment they were starred-up from and the month in which the decision was made is provided in the tables below.</p><br /><p>2011</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><br></p></td><td><p>Jan</p></td><td><p>Feb</p></td><td><p>Mar</p></td><td><p>Apr</p></td><td><p>May</p></td><td><p>Jun</p></td><td><p>Jul</p></td><td><p>Aug</p></td><td><p>Sep</p></td><td><p>Oct</p></td><td><p>Nov</p></td><td><p>Dec</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Ashfield</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p><br></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Hindley</p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Wetherby</p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><p>2012</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><br></p></td><td><p>Jan</p></td><td><p>Feb</p></td><td><p>Mar</p></td><td><p>Apr</p></td><td><p>May</p></td><td><p>Jun</p></td><td><p>Jul</p></td><td><p>Aug</p></td><td><p>Sep</p></td><td><p>Oct</p></td><td><p>Nov</p></td><td><p>Dec</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Feltham</p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Eastwood Park</p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Warren Hill</p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><p>2013</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><br></p></td><td><p>Jan</p></td><td><p>Feb</p></td><td><p>Mar</p></td><td><p>Apr</p></td><td><p>May</p></td><td><p>Jun</p></td><td><p>Jul</p></td><td><p>Aug</p></td><td><p>Sep</p></td><td><p>Oct</p></td><td><p>Nov</p></td><td><p>Dec</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Warren Hill</p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p><br></p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p><br></p></td></tr></tbody></table><br /> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 23/10/2015 12:26:01 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/09/2015 answer text <p /> <p>There is a structured performance management framework incorporated into the document storage contract held with the contractor, which includes monitoring of performance, continuous improvement, market sector comparison, identification of efficiency opportunities and management of security and risk in line with both parties’ contractual obligations. However, the contract re-procurement process has commenced and the Invitation to Tender documentation issued to the market place. Publication of the latest strategic review output specifically relating to the contractor’s performance on the contract during a competitive process where competing suppliers would have access to this information would potentially put the contractor as the incumbent supplier at a commercial disadvantage. Therefore, this information is deemed commercially sensitive and will not be released.</p> answering member constituency North Swindon answering member printed Justin Tomlinson question first answered 14/09/2015 16:35:49 answering member 4105 label Biography information for Justin Tomlinson
