We continue to support the effective use of the current 6,000 Body Worn Video Cameras across the estate, enabling every operational band 3-5 officer on duty to carry a camera, gathering vital evidence to enable prosecutions, and improve safety outcomes.</p><p>Continuous analysis is being undertaken to look at staff assaults within prison, and we are committed to making prisons a safe place to work and providing prison officers with the right support, training, and tools to empower them to do their jobs. As London prisons ease restrictions, they will be focusing on analysing regime and violence data to improve our understanding of the links between the two, using the opportunity we have in re-opening our regimes to engage in conflict resolution and restorative justice work. Safety is a key priority area for prisons, and we have committed to invest £34m of ring-fenced investment over the next three years to improve key safety outcomes by making prisons safer for both prisoners and staff. Further, we are continuing to deliver on our £100 million security investment programme with X-ray body scanners being installed in prisons across the estate along with the establishment and expansion of our Serious Organised Crime unit, and Crime in Prisons taskforce.</p> answering member constituency Louth and Horncastle answering member printed Victoria Atkins question first answered 29/03/2022 15:47:40 answering member 4399 label Biography information for Victoria Atkins
