answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/11/2014 answer text <p>The Ministry of Justice provides grant funding to Victim Support to help witnesses at both the Crown Court and magistrates’ courts in England and Wales. The service provides information, emotional and practical support to witnesses who are attending court to give evidence. This is a vital part of our commitment to victims and witnesses.</p><p> </p><p>The Ministry of Justice does not routinely collect data on the number of staff deployed to each court by Victim Support. Victim Support has provided the following breakdown of staff deployed at each Crown Court location for each year since 2010 and includes Victim Support’s assessment of their Full Time Equivalent apportionment. Some staff are deployed full-time at the Crown Court, while others provide support at Crown Court alongside some apportionment of their time for other local witness and victim services. Approximately 200,000 witnesses received support from the court-based Witness Service in 2013-14. The number of Victim Support staff deployed to each court has remained broadly consistent over the last four years.</p><p> </p><p>In addition to the court-based Witness Service, victims and witnesses also receive support from Witness Care Units (jointly staffed by the police and the Crown Prosecution Service). Witness Care Units staff are not specifically employed at Crown Court locations but provide support and information for victims and witnesses through the criminal justice system.</p><p><strong>

Furthermore, there have been no infraction proceedings at the European Court of Justice and no findings against the UK in the European Court of Human Rights about this issue in that time period.</p><p> </p><p>The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) provides razor wire and barbed wire as part of construction and refurbishment projects on its custodial estate. It is deployed most often at the top of perimeter fences and fences which form partitions within the grounds of prisons. It forms one of a number of security measures which prevent prisoners scaling fences either to breach the perimeter or to enter hazardous and prohibited areas of a prison</p><p> </p><p>The MoJ works with the National Offender Management Service (NOMS) to ensure that its proposed use would not present a health or safety hazard to prisoners, members of NOMS staff, visitors to a prison or members of the public.</p> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 03/11/2014 14:48:34 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/10/2014 answer text <p>All prisons are required to have procedures to identify, manage and support people who are at risk of harm to themselves. A health assessment is undertaken for all prisoners on reception into custody to assess their risk of suicide or self-harm. The prisoner’s Person Escort Record form, which is available to staff on reception, may provide information about concerns of self-harm. When a prisoner is identified as being at-risk of self-harm, they are managed through the Assessment, Care in Custody and Teamwork (ACCT) process, which is a prisoner-centred, flexible care planning system.</p><p> </p><p>All relevant risk information is recorded on the Prison NOMIS case management system and on healthcare IT systems where appropriate. All staff working directly with prisoners have access to NOMIS and the relevant risk information.</p> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 23/10/2014 10:34:18 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous

uin	211171
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/10/2014 answer text <p>Prior to 2013, when people applied for legal aid they were not asked to declare whether domestic violence had occurred. Since 2013, applications for legal aid do not routinely request this information as it is not relevant to legal aid provision in all categories of case. Therefore the data you request is not available.</p><p> </p><p>People seeking protective injunctions, like restraining orders, remain eligible for legal aid. Legal aid also remains available in private family cases that involve domestic violence. We have listened closely to any concerns about how the system has been operating, and made changes in response, such as making it easier to prove abuse and so get legal aid.</p> answering member constituency North West Cambridgeshire answering member printed Mr Shailesh Vara question first answered 23/10/2014 10:35:47 answering member 1496 label Biography information for Shailesh Vara
