<p>One year ago, our Education and Employment Strategy set out plans to transform
the way prisoners develop the skills they need to secure employment on release.</p><p>
</p><p>Since then, we have introduced the New Futures Network (NFN), which brokers
partnerships between prisons and employers in England and Wales. The Network places
prisoners in jobs ahead of their release as well as facilitating Release On Temporary
Licence (ROTL) placements, which offer continuity and can lead to immediate employment
on release.</p><p> </p><p>In addition, our new ROTL framework aims to increase the
number of people these opportunities are available to by allowing more prisoners to
access ROTL sooner and for longer.</p>
