star this property answer text <p>Table A attached sets out the total funding the Youth Justice Board (YJB) has given to local authorities in each year from 2009/10 to 2017/18 as published in the 2017/18 annual youth justice statistics (published totals for 2018/19 are not yet available). Table B breaks this down by local authority. The majority of this funding helps support the day-to-day business of Youth Offending Teams (YOTs), but it also includes some discrete additional grants for specific projects or initiatives, for example funding for restorative justice. The annual recorded value of the additional grants is set out in Table C.</p><p> </p><p>Due to a change in reporting processes the additional grants given in 2014/15 and 2015/16 were not included in the published totals in the 2017/18 youth justice statistics. The totals for these years therefore differ between Table A (where the additional grants are not included) and Table B (where they are included).</p> more like this

star this property answer text <p>In January 2017 we established a programme of reform to consider how we can deliver improvements across the youth justice system (YJS) and take account of the recommendations made by Charlie Taylor in his review of the YJS, published in December 2016.</p><p> </p><p>Since then we have established the Youth Custody Service to bring oversight of the whole youth secure estate under a single Executive Director directly accountable to me, and worked in partnership with DfE, DHSC and NHSE to develop the secure schools model. We hope to appoint the provider of the first secure school this summer. The Youth Justice Board has developed a new performance assessment process for Youth Offending Teams and we have increased the availability of liaison and diversion services across England.</p><p> </p><p>Work is also underway to review our criminal records processes and we have established a dedicated youth justice disproportionality team who are taking forward work to explain or address disproportionate representation and outcomes within the system. In addition, the HMCTS court reform programme has a specific workstream considering the needs of children and we are also undertaking a review of the use of remand for children.</p><p> </p><p>Work has therefore been completed, or is underway, in relation to every recommendation made in Charlie Taylor’s review and we will continue to use the review and the specific recommendations made to inform our work as we take our reform programme forward.</p>

star this property answer text <p>All children in the youth secure estate have their needs and risks identified, addressed and managed in line with the requirements set out in ‘Standards for children in the youth justice system’ (<a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/780504/Standards_for_children_in_youth_justice_services_2019.doc.pdf" target="_blank">https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/780504/Standards_for_children_in_youth_justice_services_2019.doc.pdf</a>). These standards apply to all secure establishments providers, including health commissioners and providers. All youth secure establishments must also follow the relevant case management guidance relating to LAC. Therefore, having or not having ‘formal written procedures’ does not in itself dictate the quality of care for LAC.</p><p> </p><p>Children detained under criminal justice legislation in secure establishments are subject to the Children Act 1989. The responsible authority continues to have responsibilities towards them in the same way as they would to other children in need – recognising that the court, by sentencing the child, has determined where he/she will live. The duties and expectations placed on all local authorities in relation to effectively caring for looked-after children and care leavers, including where they are detained in the secure estate, are set out in the relevant legislation and accompanying statutory guidance.</p>

star this property answer text <p>The safety and welfare of children in custody is our highest priority. Restraint is only ever used as a last resort, where there is a risk of harm and no other form of intervention is possible or appropriate. However, we recognise that there are still high levels of restraint.</p><p> </p><p>In 2017, we began to implement a comprehensive reform programme with the aim of improving levels of safety in the youth custodial estate. The programme is underpinned a new evidence-based positive behaviour strategy and significant reform of the workforce. We are also taking specific actions to reduce the number of incidents of restraint, including:</p><ul><li>introducing the Minimising and Managing Physical Restraint framework in all secure training centres (STCs) and under-18 young offender institutions (YOIs). This has been specifically developed to avoid physical restraint as far as possible by using a range of de-escalation, diversion and behaviour management techniques;</li><li>requiring each public STC and YOI to implement a “Restraint Minimisation Strategy”;</li><li>reviewing data on use of force to improve recording and reporting and to improve practice; and</li><li>undertaking a safeguarding review across the youth secure estate.</li></ul><p>In addition, we have recently responded positively to the recommendations on restraint made by the Joint Committee for Human Rights.</p>

star this property answer text <p>Information on children in custody with special educational needs is collected on entry into custody by Youth Offending Teams (YOTs) and submitted to the Youth Custody Service (YCS) to inform placement decisions. Comprehensive screening and assessment is conducted for all Children and Young People across the youth justice system, allowing for early identification of needs and requirements to support their care. An initial assessment is made before the first night in custody to assess any immediate needs or requirements, this is then followed by further physical and mental health assessments.</p><p> </p><p>Of those children entering custody during 2018/19, 30% were assessed as having special educational needs or disabilities. The data presented should be considered as an indication of the needs and risks of young people as they enter the secure estate, rather than formal clinical assessment. Further assessment of the educational needs of all children continues on induction using a screening tool, and throughout their time in custody.</p>

That is why we are working to reform youth custodial provision through the development of secure schools, a new type of secure provision for children, and delivering a wide-ranging change programme in existing youth custody sites including workforce reform, infrastructure changes and a new approach to behaviour management and education and healthcare delivery. Alongside this we are driving forward reform of the criminal records regime, considering how we can improve youth sentencing and working to explain or address disproportionality across the youth justice system.</p>

star this property answer text <p>As stated in the previous answer information is collected locally on a young person’s entry into custody, and may be updated over the course of their custodial episode. This information helps to inform staff in relation to the children in their immediate care.</p><p>As part of their assessment Youth Offending Teams (YOTs) record a child’s accommodation status and seek to address any issues relating to this. The Youth Justice Board is currently undertaking work to improve its own data collection and a child’s accommodation status will be included in this. The Ministry of Justice, however, does not hold a national coordinating role in this regard, so there is currently no essential business reason to collate this centrally. It is the general duty of every local authority to safeguard and promote the welfare of children within their area who are in need by providing a range and level of services, including accommodation, appropriate to those children’s needs.</p><p>We believe that everyone should have a safe and suitable home to live; having somewhere to live gives people a stable platform from which to access health services, hold down a job and reduces the likelihood of them reoffending. In keeping with this the Government published its Rough Sleeping Strategy in August 2018, launching a £100 million initiative to reduce and ultimately eliminate rough sleeping across England.</p>

As with any large data system, there are also likely to be some inaccuracies.</p><p> </p><p>Over the period of Reform, we expect the shape and size of the organisation to change. As part of this we are reducing our staffing levels and expect the future skills of our people to change. The HMCTS workforce strategy during this period is to increase the capability of our staff, whilst simultaneously increasing our workforce flexibility through the increased usage of contingent labour. This is in order to reduce redundancy costs and protect the jobs of longer serving, permanent staff. The required staffing level needed across each of our HMCTS sites is monitored closely, and proactive recruitment undertaken to ensure these levels are maintained.</p>

In October last year, together with a number of leading football organisations, it launched the Twinning Project, in which 40 English Football League and Premier League clubs are working together with prison establishments to help reduce re-offending. The form this work will take will vary depending on the needs of the establishment and the club, but will range from professional coaching qualifications to refereeing and employability skills. There are also plans to extend this approach to include other sports, such as Rugby League.</p><p> </p><p> </p> more like this

star this property answer text <p>Responses to the two parts of the questions are as follows:</p><p>Part (a) - At this point it cannot be determined if the full data set for directly employed staff is available. The reason for this is because in Feb 2017 MOJ rationalised its payrolls and moved to a new payroll system (known as SOP), so any prior year’s data, if available, would need to be sourced from legacy systems. To do this would require raising requests with several legacy suppliers who could then determine if the data was available. The cost of doing this would be disproportionate. Only data for the following financial periods are available. This data covers the MOJ group:</p><p>- February 2017 - March 2017 - £18,418,976</p><p>- April 2017 – March 2018 - £103,919,954</p><p>- April 2018 – March 2019 - £93,402,051</p><p>- April 2019 - June 2019 - £21,944,613</p><p>The average number of employees throughout the above periods was:</p><p>- In 2017 - 71,000</p><p>- In 2018 – 72,000</p><p>- In 2019 – 76,000</p><p>It should also be noted that there are many reasons why someone may get paid overtime, for example, in prisons for carrying out bedwatch or dealing with incidents of unrest. All of these elements have been included in the above figures.</p><p> </p><p>Part (b) – This data is not available because MOJ engage agency staff via third party providers such as Brook Street, and these staff are not on the MOJ payroll and therefore details of any overtime paid are not held by MOJ. MOJ pay for these individuals, who are generally charged out at an hourly rate, via invoice.</p>

star this property answer text <p>Information on how many Recorders have sat to hear cases in each year has only been held centrally since 2017/18. The below table, however, sets out the number of Recorders in post at 1<sup>st</sup> April of each year since 2010. We expect Recorders in post to have been offered the opportunity to sit.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Year</p></td><td><p>Number of Recorders<sup>1</sup></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2010</p></td><td><p>1,233</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2011</p></td><td><p>1,221</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012</p></td><td><p>1,155</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2013</p></td><td><p>1,196</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2014</p></td><td><p>1,126</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2015</p></td><td><p>1,031</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2016</p></td><td><p>1,130</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2017</p></td><td><p>920</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2018</p></td><td><p>830</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2019</p></td><td><p>873</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><sup>1 </sup>Figures are at 1st April of each year.</p></td></tr></tbody></table><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Some Recorders hold more than one judicial appointment. In such cases, the appointment that the judicial office holder undertakes for the majority of their time is known as their primary appointment. In order to avoid double counting of judges, this table shows figures for primary appointments only and as such will not count judges whose appointment as a Recorder is not their primary appointment.</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Figures are from the published Judicial Diversity Statistics which can be found here: <a href="https://www.judiciary.uk/publication-type/statistics/" target="_blank">https://www.judiciary.uk/publication-type/statistics/</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Recorders sit mainly in the Crown, County and Family Courts. Figures on court sitting days are published on Gov.uk and the latest information covering 2018 is available here. It is part of the Royal Courts of Justice Annual Tables (which contain at Tables 5.1 and 5.2 a breakdown of sitting days by type of work and level of judge): <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/civil-justice-statistics-quarterly-january-to-march-2019" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/civil-justice-statistics-quarterly-january-to-march-2019</a>.

star this property answer text <p>The information is not centrally held and could only be obtained only at disproportionate cost. However, all pregnant women in custody have an individual care and management plan that is communicated to all staff and all pregnant women are seen by a mid-wife at least fortnightly or as required.</p><p> </p><p>Healthcare in prisons is provided by trained medics and nurses, but we have also made training on dealing with pregnant women available to all prison officers.</p><p> </p><p>We know it is extremely rare for a woman to give birth in prison - because every step is taken to get them to hospital - but those unique cases are invariably down to the unpredictability of labour.</p><p> </p><p>Our Female Offender Strategy made clear that we want fewer women serving short sentences in custody and more remaining in the community, making use of women’s centres to address needs such as substance misuse and mental health problems.</p> more like this
