answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/11/2015 answer text <p>There is evidence that adult education courses can have positive benefits for people with mental health problems:</p><ul><li>A 2012 LSE study<sup><sup>[1]</sup></sup> reported health and wellbeing benefits associated with adult learning, with reductions in self-reported depression, improvements in life satisfaction, enhanced perceptions of self-worth, improvements in self-reported overall health and increased desire to find a better job.</li><li>An Institute of Education study<sup><sup>[2]</sup></sup> found that interest-related learning had the effect of increasing women’s life satisfaction and decreasing female depression, as well as having a positive effect on self-efficacy.</li><li>In 2010, Northamptonshire County Council Adult Learning Service and the local Teaching Primary Care Trust developed community adult education courses for people with mild to moderate depression and anxiety. The project was evaluated over a three year period by the Mental Health Foundation (MHF)<strong><sup><strong><sup>[3]</sup></strong></sup></strong>. The evaluation found that the adult education courses offered a simple, low-cost way of helping to reduce the symptoms of mild to moderate depression and anxiety.</li></ul><p>To test this evidence more rigorously, the 2014 Autumn Statement announced new funding to pilot adult education courses targeted at adults with mild to moderate mental health problems. Adult education providers are developing courses in partnership with local mental health organisations. The project is being advised by a cross-government steering group which includes senior officials from the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills, the Department of Health, Public Health England, NHS England and the Department for Work and Pensions.</p><p>A consortium led by Ipsos-MORI is undertaking an external evaluation and gathering anonymised evidence about participants’ progress in relation to anxiety, depression and wellbeing. Pilots are using the same standardised and validated assessment scores as used by the NHS Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) programme.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/11/2015 answer text <p>A fixed-term recall is used only in respect of offenders who are assessed as not posing a risk of serious harm to the public at the point at which they would be re-released automatically. A fixed term recall will not be given in cases where an offender has been charged with a further serious offence, such as a sexual or violent offence or where an offender’s behaviour suggests that he presents a risk of serious harm to the public. Such offenders would receive a standard recall, which means they are liable to remain in prison until the end of their sentence</p><p> </p><p>In appropriate cases, a fixed-term recall allows preventative measures to be put in place to stop the offender breaching their licence again</p><p> </p><p>The table below provides a list of the offences committed by 546 offenders who received a fixed term recall in 2014 and who were serving a sentence for violence against the person.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Violence against the person</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Murder</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Manslaughter</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Other and attempted homicide</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Wounding</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Assaults</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Other violence against the person</p></td></tr></tbody></table> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 17/11/2015 10:47:29 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous
