We do not tolerate drugs in prison and anyone caught with them will be punished and could face further prosecution.<\/p> <\/p> The success of NOMS Drug Strategy is illustrated by the reduction of drug misuse - as measured by the random mandatory drug testing programme - which has declined by 17.0 percentage points over the past 17 years (positive rates were 24.4% in 1996/7 and 7.4% in 2013/14) despite the fact that more drugs are being tested for.<\/p> <\/p> New psychoactive substances are a recent issue affecting many parts of society, both here and abroad, including our prisons. NOMS is working with its partners to develop methods for testing for NPS and preventing them from entering establishments. Work is also taking place to increase levels of understanding about the risks that NPS present to offenders, with a view to providing them and those who work with them in prisons and the community with appropriate information, guidance and support.<\/p> <\/p> The Government recently introduced an amendment to the Criminal Justice and Courts Bill to expand prisons' powers to test prisoners for non-controlled drugs. This would allow prison staff to conduct mandatory drug tests on prisoners for non-controlled drugs, such as new psychoactive substances and medicines, if the required tests were available.<\/p> <\/p> All figures in this answer have been drawn from live administrative data systems which may be amended at any time. Although care is taken when processing and analysing the returns, the detail collected is subject to the inaccuracies inherent in any large scale recording system. The data has been extracted by searching for the exact terms given in the question and not any slang or alternative spellings. The data are not subject to audit.<\/p> <\/p> The table below gives the number of seizures in prisons in England and Wales in the timeframe requested of Mephedrone, BZP, Spice and Ketamine, and described exactly as such on the database.<\/p> <\/p> 2010<\/strong><\/p><\/td> 2011<\/strong><\/p><\/td> 2012<\/strong><\/p><\/td> 2013<\/strong><\/p><\/td> 2014 to 31 July<\/strong><\/p><\/td><\/tr> Mephedrone<\/p><\/td> 0<\/p><\/td> 0<\/p><\/td> 0<\/p><\/td> 3<\/p><\/td> 2<\/p><\/td><\/tr> BZP<\/p><\/td> 0<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td> 0<\/p><\/td> 0<\/p><\/td> 0<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Spice<\/p><\/td> 15<\/p><\/td> 86<\/p><\/td> 133<\/p><\/td> 262<\/p><\/td> 430<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Ketamine<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td> 3<\/p><\/td> 5<\/p><\/td> 2<\/p><\/td> 4<\/p><\/td><\/tr> TOTAL<\/strong><\/p><\/td> 16<\/strong><\/p><\/td> 90<\/strong><\/p><\/td> 138<\/strong><\/p><\/td> 267<\/strong><\/p><\/td> 436<\/strong><\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table> <\/p> The term \u201cLegal Highs\u201d represents hundreds of different substances of which spice is just one.

It allows staff to be allocated from prisons with the capacity to provide them, to those where additional staffing is required. On average over the six month period (January to June 2014), less than 1% of Band 3 officers were provided on detached duty. A large proportion of the capacity is typically available from prisons that are in the process of closure or going through a re-role. This process temporarily releases a number of officers who are not supplied for specific occasions but are sent and received on a shift pattern throughout the week.<\/p> <\/p> The number of staff available for detached duty at any one time is a matter for operational judgement and takes account of overall staff numbers, levels of sickness, prisoner numbers and the regime and security requirements.<\/p> <\/p> The average weekly provision of band 3 prison officers, that were received as part of the nationally co-ordinated detached duty scheme, are shown in the tables below for April to June 2014. For information on the three months January to March I refer the Hon. Member to the reply given to him on 12 June 2014, Official Report, columns 316W to 318W. The nationally co-ordinated scheme relates to Band 3 Prison Officers only. Detached duty arrangements for more senior staff are managed locally and are not included in the information presented, as they are not recorded centrally.<\/p> <\/p> Table: Average weekly provision of Band 3 Prison Officers on detached duty to prisons in England & Wales, April - June 2014<\/strong><\/p> <\/p> <\/p> Grade<\/strong><\/p><\/td> Apr-14<\/strong><\/p><\/td> May-14<\/strong><\/p><\/td> Jun-14<\/strong><\/p><\/td><\/tr> Band 3<\/p><\/td> 210<\/p><\/td> 160<\/p><\/td> 170<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Total<\/p><\/td> 210<\/p><\/td> 160<\/p><\/td> 170<\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table> <\/p> <\/p> We have maintained our policy of rounding figures to the nearest 10 in line with the department\u2019s policy for presenting staffing data.

Totals are formed from unrounded parts prior to rounding.
