answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/10/2018 answer text <p>While I cannot comment on individual cases, I would like to reassure The hon. Member for West Lancashire, Rosie Cooper MP, and the prison officer involved that assaults on our hard-working staff will never be tolerated. Prisoners can expect to face sanctions and, for serious assaults, be investigated by the police. The Assaults on Emergency Workers (Offences) Act 2018 received Royal Assent on 13 September 2018. This doubles the maximum sentence for an assault on an emergency worker, including prison officers, that a criminal court may impose.</p><p> </p><p>Alongside our work with the police and CPS to prosecute such offences, to protect our prison staff we have invested in 5,600 body-worn cameras and are rolling out rigid-bar handcuffs. Early next year we will begin to equip every prison officer in the adult male prison estate with incapacitant spray – PAVA. PAVA can help to prevent serious harm to staff and prisoners alike, as well as being a tool to persuade prisoners in the act of violence to stop. Only prisons who have rolled out the key worker scheme – which is vital in building relationships between offenders and staff – will get PAVA. It will be a crucial step in our efforts to help reduce serious harm in prisons.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart question first answered 11/10/2018 16:33:38 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart
