answer text <p>Section.28 is one of the Special Measures introduced under the Youth Justice and Criminal Evidence Act 1999. It was commenced for vulnerable witnesses under 16 year olds and those lacking mental or physical capacity in Kingston upon Thames, Liverpool and Leeds Crown Court Centres in December 2013. This was extended to under 18 year olds in January 2017, and will be rolled out nationally for all vulnerable witnesses in a phased approach from this autumn. We are also testing s.28 for certain eligible intimidated victims of sexual offences and modern slavery in Kingston upon Thames, Liverpool and Leeds Crown Court Centres this autumn.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The abuse and neglect of children is abhorrent. There is a range of criminal offences and robust sanctions that deal with this cruel and serious offending. A child’s alleged consent to any abusive activity should not be a defence against any criminal offence.</p><p>A child’s consent to sexual activity is not recognised under criminal law if the child is under the age of 16.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The safety and welfare of young people held in custody is our highest priority. Restraint should only be used as a last resort, where there is a risk of harm to self or others, and no other form of intervention is possible or appropriate.</p><p> </p><p>Minimising and Managing Physical Restraint (MMPR) has been specifically developed for use by staff working with children and young people in custody. It has been designed so that physical restraint is avoided as far as possible by recognising young people’s behaviour, and by using a range of de-escalation, diversion and behaviour management techniques to help them deal with it effectively and appropriately.</p><p> </p><p>MMPR has been implemented, on a roll-out basis since September 2012, in all Secure Training Centres (STCs) and Young Offender Institutions (YOIs). There are no plans to roll this out to Secure Children’s Homes (SCHs), who each have their own restraint procedures.</p><p> </p><p>The three tables below provide data, by establishment type, relating to any injury sustained as a result of a Restrictive Physical Intervention (RPI) for each establishment. RPI is defined as “Any occasion when force is used with the intention of overpowering or to overpower a young person”. Overpower is defined as “restricting movement or mobility.</p><p> </p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>
