The PbR pilot operating in HMP Peterborough began on 9 September 2010 and results for cohort 1 of this pilot were published on 7 August 2014. The final set of results will be published in due course. The PbR pilot that operated in HMP Doncaster started in October 2011 and closed at the end of 2014. Results for cohort 1 were published in August 2014 and results for cohort 2 were published in July 2015.<\/p>

Any offender who is believed to have committed further offences whilst on licence is liable to be arrested and charged and, if convicted, given a further sentence. If the offence is serious, they can be remanded into custody until trial. Offenders on licence who are charged with further offences are also liable to be recalled, potentially to serve the rest of their sentence in prison, as they will be in breach of the requirement of their licence to be of good behaviour. If the offender is assessed as not presenting a risk of harm to the public they can be assessed as suitable for a shorter, fixed term recall. Those who have been charged with serious sexual or violent offences will not be considered suitable for a fixed term recall.<\/p>

Such offenders can apply for re-release before their automatic re-release date. In the last five years two offenders in 2011, one in 2013 and two in 2015 applied for release.

Faith communities can play a significant part in supporting offenders to resettle into the community. Facilities for worship are available in each establishment but, as part of restoring links between the offender and wider community, suitable, risk-assessed offenders may attend worship outside the prison to help them adjust to the climate of non-prison worship and mixing with the community. In addition, temporary release for the purpose of maintaining family ties might be timed so as to coincide with religious occasions. There is no prescription as to the nature of the religious occasion; it is for the governor, on the advice of the temporary release board, to decide whether the activity is linked to the offender\u2019s resettlement plan.<\/p>

<\/p>

Records show that, in 2015, prisoners were released on temporary licence specifically in order to attend a religious service on 90 occasions.<\/p>

Open units within closed prisons are a cost-effective means of providing regional resettlement opportunities for prisoners who are deemed suitable for such accommodation following a risk-assessment. Progression to open prisons or to open units within closed prisons is never automatic and prisoners must generally be within two years of release before they can be considered for allocation. Only those prisoners who are assessed having a low risk of escape or abscond and risk of harm to the public a will be allocated to open prison conditions.<\/p>

The proportion of 16 to 17 year old offenders who were found to have been convicted of committing a second knife offence and received the mandatory four months Detention and Training Order during the period 17 July to 31 December 2015 is available here:<\/p>

Any decisions and assessments taken regarding the minimum mandatory penalty are made solely by the courts. Whilst the 4 month DTO is the minimum custodial term available for 16 to 17 year old offenders, the courts also have the power to set aside the minimum term in the event of a guilty plea and/or if time has been served in custody on remand or on a tag. A decision by the courts to reduce the minimum term will result in a community penalty.<\/p>

The published figures will change when the outcomes of cases passing through the criminal justice system become available on the Police National Computer.
