The table below shows the number of first releases from IPP sentences by establishment, England and Wales, 2015 \u2013 2018. Please note that the releasing prison is not necessarily where risk reduction interventions have been undertaken. In many cases, prisoners may be transferred to participate in risk reduction work or other interventions, or moved nearer to their home area before release.<\/p>

<\/p>

It is important to remember that prisoners serving IPP sentences have committed serious sexual or violent offences and remain in prison because the independent parole board have assessed their risk of serious harm to the public to be too great to warrant their release. Prisoners who have served their minimum tariff have their suitability for parole reviewed by the Parole Board at least every 2 years<\/p>

<\/p>

Due to improvements in IT systems, detailed statistics are available from 2015 only and therefore<\/p>

pre-2015 figures for releases from IPP sentences broken down by establishment have not been included.<\/p>

<\/p>

Please note that:<\/p>

HMP Blantyre House was temporarily taken out of use from January 2015<\/p>

HMP Downview reopened in May 2016 after a period of refurbishment.<\/p>

HMP Holloway closed in May 2016<\/p>

HMP Kennet closed in December 2016<\/p>

HMP Berwyn opened in February 2017<\/p>

<\/p>

HMP Peterborough is a dual purpose prison for men and women.<\/p>

<\/p>

'..' Indicates that the establishment was not in use during the entire period<\/p>

As with any large-scale recording system, administrative IT systems are subject to possible errors with data entry and processing.<\/p>
