answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/10/2014 answer text <p>Detailed records of offenders who are unlawfully at large have only been maintained since April 2004. It is not possible therefore to provide details of any prisoner who has been unlawfully at large before this period or to specify the longest period of absence.</p><p> </p><p>The number of escapes, absconds and temporary release failures has fallen over the last two decades. When a prisoner becomes unlawfully at large he or she is immediately reported to police to locate and apprehend. Unlawfully at large prisoners are often recaptured and returned to custody quickly, and over 97% of prisoners who absconded between April 2004 and March 2014 have been returned to custody. Absconds are taken very seriously. Re-captured prisoners will be returned to a more secure closed prison and will face either a criminal prosecution or an internal adjudication in prison in front of a visiting judge. In either case they can receive additional time in prison.</p> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 29/10/2014 17:52:50 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous
