answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/07/2017 answer text <p>When Community Rehabilitation Companies (CRCs) were under public ownership (from 1 June 2014 to 31 January 2015), we published workforce information on a quarterly basis. The final iteration of these statistics was published on 31 December 2014 and can be found at the following link: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/community-rehabilitation-companies-workforce-information-report-quarter-3-2014-to-2015" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/community-rehabilitation-companies-workforce-information-report-quarter-3-2014-to-2015</a>.</p><p> </p><p>Contracts with CRCs require each CRC to ensure that it employs a sufficient level of staff, and that its workforce is competent and adequately trained. We closely monitor and robustly manage providers to make sure they fulfil their contractual commitments to reduce reoffending, protect the public and provide value for money to the taxpayer.</p> answering member constituency East Surrey answering member printed Mr Sam Gyimah question first answered 12/07/2017 15:43:36 answering member 3980 label Biography information for Mr Sam Gyimah
