The IPCC will write to the Hon. Member within the next two weeks to explain that the Ministry of Defence Police (MDP) is investigating this matter locally and it would not be appropriate for the IPCC to provide information about the local investigation, hence he will need to write to the MPD to obtain more information. I will place a copy of the letter in the Library of the House.<\/p>

The COMPASS contracts contain robust provisions to ensure that providers meet the contractual standards relating to the provision of accommodation and transport.
The Home Office works closely with Serco to continually monitor the compliance processes to ensure that accommodation remains of an acceptable standard. Serco has invested significantly to update its property portfolio and transportation service and now routinely achieves the standards of accommodation and transport required within the contract.
Serco faced some difficulties in the second half of 2014 which necessitated the use of contingency accommodation. The Home Office continues to work closely with Serco to ensure that they can source sufficient volumes of accommodation to meet the demands of the contract.<\/p>

The information requested covers a broad range of case types and is not held
centrally for in country cases. It could only be obtained at a disproportionate
cost. For international appeals the average time for allowed appeals to be
implemented from January to December 2014 was 43 calendar days. Since 2006,
the average time has been 69 days with a peak of 92 days in 2009.
The Home Office has 14 calendar days to consider whether to appeal an allowed
First-tier or Upper Tribunal decision (although this can be longer in some
Upper Tribunal decisions where the last avenue to appeal is direct to the Court
of Appeal) for in country cases and 28 calendar days for international (out of
country) cases. The relevant unit responsible for implementation will be
notified once a decision has been made not to appeal.<\/p>

The Home Office does not collate figures on the number of sexual offences prevention orders imposed by the courts. However, figures for the period from
2009 to 2014 are contained in the annual Multi-Agency Public Protection Arrangements report, published by the Ministry of Justice on the Gov.uk website. The latest report covering the period from April 2013 to March 2014 is available at:<\/p>
