Our reforms to probation mean we are now monitoring around 40,000 offenders who would previously have been released with no supervision at all. We have seen a reduction of two percentage points in the reoffending rates of those supervised by Community Rehabilitation Companies (CRCs). We have been clear, however, that overall performance of CRCs needs to improve across a range of areas. We have taken decisive action to stabilise and improve the delivery of probation services, including by investing £22m per year to enhance \u2018Through The Gate\u2019 services and introducing minimum standards so that all providers offer monthly face-to-face meetings with offenders during their first 12 months of supervision. In September, we concluded a public consultation on proposals to end current CRC contracts early and introduce new arrangements for delivering probation services that will better integrate public, private and third sector probation providers and improve outcomes. We will bring forward more detailed plans early next year.<\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>

The sentencing framework gives courts the flexibility to select community order requirements which are a robust alternative to custody, and are tailored to address the specific issues that contribute to reoffending.<\/p>

<\/p>

Probation services are vital to the effective delivery of community sentences. In July we published the consultation Strengthening Probation, Building Confidence <\/em>setting out the Government\u2019s vision for improving probation including proposals to promote meaningful unpaid work schemes which both make reparation to communities and equip offenders with employment-related skills and experience. The action we propose to take will ensure that courts and the public can be confident that offenders sentenced to community and suspended sentence orders will be properly supervised, receive the rehabilitative support they need and that appropriate action is taken if offenders fail to comply with requirements.<\/p>

<\/p>

We continue to actively explore many other options to improve non-custodial sentences, including better electronic tagging.<\/p>

Within the public-sector prison estate, the management of water distribution installations is the responsibility of the respective facilities management providers as part of their existing agreements to provide a range of maintenance services. Within the private-sector prison estate, the management of the water distribution installations is the responsibility of the respective prison operator as part of their existing agreements to operate their prisons. There is currently no plan to procure these services separately from existing agreements through any Crown Commercial Service framework.<\/p>
