We regularly review our practices, taking account of external research into alternatives to detention. Following a recent meeting between officials and representatives of the UNHCR and from Canada and Sweden, to discuss best practice, opportunities for further work are being explored with a range of faith and community groups and other non-governmental organisations.

An HMPPS instruction (PSI 17/2016) advises Pre-sentence report (PSR) writers must consider requesting a full adjournment for the preparation of a PSR where a custodial sentence outcome appears likely, and an offender discloses that they are transgender, on the basis that transgender people may have more complex needs. This guidance is included in the Equal Treatment Bench Book chapter on transgender, published by the Judicial Office. Additionally, a local Transgender Case Board should be convened, either during pre-sentence report preparation or within three working days of reception into custody, to assess and determine the most appropriate location and initial care and management plan for the transgender individual in custody.<\/p>
<\/p>
Regardless of where a transgender individual is being held, we expect that they will be respected and addressed in the gender with which they identify; and we are committed to ensuring that they are treated fairly, lawfully and decently.<\/p>"}

The level of unemployment in Coventry Local Authority District, estimated using the Annual Population Survey, stood at 9,100 in the year to September 2017 - down from 13,700 in the year to September 2010.<\/p>
<\/p>
The level of unemployment in the West Midlands, estimated using the Labour Force Survey, stood at 141,000 in the quarter to January 2018 \u2013 down from 160,000 in the same period a year ago, and from 247,000 before the 2010 election (the quarter to April 2010).<\/p>
<\/p>
This is consistent with the continuing improvements in the wider economy. The UK\u2019s unemployment rate is currently 4.3% and has not been lower since 1975. The employment rate in the UK stands at a joint record high of 75.3% and there are a near record 816,000 vacancies throughout the economy.<\/p>
<\/p>
Note:<\/strong><\/p> <\/p>
The sub-regional data is estimated by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), using the Annual Population Survey. The regional data is estimated from the ONS Labour Force Survey.<\/p>
<\/p>
The level of unemployment in Coventry South Parliamentary Constituency Area was estimated at 3,300 in the year to September 2017. This figure is subject to a high degree of statistical uncertainty due to very small sample sizes upon which this estimate is based. This means we cannot make a reliable comparison to the year to September 2016 estimate.<\/p>"}

Government welcomes Ofgem\u2019s recent proposals for the next set of price controls (due to start in 2021) which Ofgem estimates will save customers £5 billion over 5 years. Government expects network companies to act in the best interests of consumers and welcomes the voluntary returns that have been made by some network companies in this price control.
