https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/safety-in-custody-quarterly-update-to-december-2018<\/a><\/p>I regret that the specific figures that you seek could be obtained only at disproportionate cost, as staff who were the victims of assaults and subsequently departed from HMPPS could only be identified by reading every individual incident report (of which there are nearly 50,000 in the period in which you are interested) and matching the names of those involved with HR records.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government is taking unprecedented action to improve safety in prisons. We have recruited over 4,700 more prison officers since October 2016, and we now have the greatest number in post since early 2012. The Challenge, Support and Intervention Plan case management process for prisoners at risk of violence has been mandated for all prisons to help staff to manage violent prisoners and those identified as posing a raised risk of being violent.<\/p>
<\/p>
We are investing an extra £70 million to improve safety, security and decency, and equipping officers with PAVA incapacitant spray and body-worn cameras to help prevent serious harm to staff and prisoners when dealing with violent incidents. We are improving perimeter security and introducing new x-ray scanners, drug-detection dogs and dedicated search teams to address the supply of drugs that we know are fuelling much of the violence in custody.<\/p>"}

\u200bThe UK remains committed to protecting vulnerable people, including the over one million forcibly displaced Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh. Up to 18 per cent of the Department for International Development's latest £70 million funding to the Rohingya crisis response in Bangladesh is devoted to the protection of rights for refugees, including prevention and monitoring of sexual exploitation and abuse.<\/p>
The UK Preventing Sexual Violence in Conflict Initiative continues to work with the Government of Bangladesh, UN agencies and other stakeholders to strengthen justice and accountability for Rohingya survivors of sexual violence. UK funding includes support for family planning, clinical support to survivors of sexual violence and the creation of safe spaces for women.<\/p>"}

The UK continues to press the Burmese authorities to implement the Annan Commission recommendations, and has discussed the issue with international partners in various fora. Most recently, I raised the issue with the Burmese National Security Adviser during his visit to London in March. We recognise that the Burmese Government has begun to respond to some of the recommendations but there is still much to be done. Through coordinated efforts at the United Nations, the UK has ensured a focus on Burma at the Security Council and Human Rights Council, including on the question of conditions in Rakhine. In January 2019 the Foreign Secretary discussed Burma with Foreign Minister Balakrishnan of Singapore; he has also met representatives of Non-Governmental Organisations working in Burma.<\/p>"}

\u200bThe UK has been clear, as has the UN Security Council, that Burma must create the conditions in Rakhine to allow the Rohingya to return safely, voluntarily and with dignity. We agree with the UN High Commissioner for Refugees that these conditions do not yet exist. UN agencies also do not have the access they need to provide independent monitoring of any returns. The UK was deeply concerned when Bangladesh and Burma announced that the repatriation of refugees to Burma would begin in November 2018. We raised our concerns at the highest levels with both Governments, stressing that returns should not commence while conditions in northern Rakhine remain as they are. We welcome Bangladesh's commitment to the principle of "voluntariness" and were pleased that repatriations did not commence in November 2018. We will continue to make representations to the Governments of both Bangladesh and Burma not to commence returns until suitable conditions exist in northern Rakhine.<\/p>"}
