answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/10/2014 answer text <p>The Probation Service transitioned to new structures on 1 June following thorough business readiness testing which demonstrated that NOMS was ready to make that transition at that time. The new CRCs are sufficiently resourced to deliver their core duties and we will ensure that there is enough capacity to meet demand within the new system. Offender management statistics are published quarterly. The statistical bulletin for the quarter ending 30 June 2014 will be published at the end of October 2014, and the bulletin for the quarter ending 30 September will be published at the end of January 2015.</p><p> </p><p>Pending transactions – where a case is in the process of being transferred to another part of the Service for further action – are by their nature fluid. These cases are managed on a daily basis to ensure they are transferred as efficiently as possible. The figure varies from day to day and is not published.</p> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous grouped question UIN 211237 question first answered 28/10/2014 15:01:45 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous
