Following the attacks in New Zealand, we recognised the increased security anxieties being felt by mosques as we approach Ramadan. A security training scheme commenced on the 5 May.

We have also made available funds to pay for the distribution of written advice to mosques, community centres and madrassahs.

Over its first three years, the Places of Worship protective security scheme has approved grants worth approximately £1.5m to 134 places of worship. During that time, Ministers have approved 49 grants to mosques worth £638,906.34.<\/p>

Following the Finsbury Park terror attack in June 2017, we also announced a £1m fund to protect vulnerable faith institutions.

HM Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) does not impose penalties for deaths in custody. We do, however, monitor and assure the use of the Assessment, Care in Custody and Teamwork (ACCT) case management procedures for prisoners identified as being at risk of self-harm or suicide.<\/p>

<\/p>

All prisons are required to comply with chapter 12 of PSI 64/2011, which sets out the required action following a death in custody. All such deaths are independently investigated by the Prisons and Probation Ombudsman (PPO) and subject to an inquest. All prisons, including those that are privately managed, are required to respond to PPO recommendations and any Prevention of Future Deaths (PFD) reports issued by Coroners.<\/p>

<\/p>

Privately managed prison performance is closely monitored by robust contract management processes. Each privately managed prison has an on-site controller, employed by HMPPS. Controllers, together with regional contract managers review performance against indicators set out in the contract. Any improvement action identified may include a requirement for urgent improvement and/or financial deductions. The controller will monitor the provider\u2019s actions when there is a death in custody and the provider\u2019s compliance with any actions set out in responses to PPO reports and/or PFD reports from Coroners. In the event there were serious failings highlighted at the prison, the Authority would look to manage the Contractor\u2019s poor performance through utilising the appropriate contractual levers.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4106", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Robert Buckland"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "South Swindon"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Robert Buckland"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-05-30", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : {"_value" : "257094"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-05-30T15:55:39.6Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "54"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Justice"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Justice"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-05-21", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Prisoners: Death"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, whether his Department imposes penalties on private prison operators following deaths in prison.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4394", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Imran Hussain"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Bradford East"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Imran Hussain"} ], "uin" : "257093"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1127857", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Ministry of Justice"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1127857/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
