We continue to work with councils and charities to secure suitable accommodation, while investigating long-term solutions to prevent homelessness and help offenders turn their backs on crime.</p><p> </p><p>We provided data on accommodation on release last summer given the uncertainty around early releases from prison and other factors during the first Covid peak, and the public interest in this area at the time.

Future statistics on accommodation on release from will be published in due course, in line with the official statistics publication schedule.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/03/2021 answer text <p>In 2016, as part of his Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) commissioned-review into the handling of a number of non-recent sexual offence investigations alleged against persons of public prominence, Sir Richard Henriques made a number of recommendations to the MPS. In October 2019, the Home Secretary asked Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire &amp; Rescue Services (HMICFRS) to assess the MPS’ progress in learning the lessons from Operation Midland, taking into account Sir Richard’s recommendations. HMICFRS reported in March 2020 and wrote to all Chief Constables to make them aware of their findings and recommendations where relevant to policing more widely. The Home Office will continue to seek assurances from the MPS, and all forces in England and Wales, that improvements are being made to ensure that the mistakes of Operation Midland cannot be repeated.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 16/03/2021 16:50:58 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/03/2021 answer text <p>BEIS officials consider several factors when assessing whether a request can be obtained at proportionate cost. One such factor is the time a request is made. A request made close to the time it is requesting information from is easier to process and respond to. A request sent a significant time after an event is much more difficult to process in a timely way, as it involves a recall of historic records by the records team.</p> answering member constituency Sutton and Cheam answering member printed Paul Scully question first answered 16/03/2021 13:46:07 answering member 4414 label Biography information for Paul Scully
