uin	88986
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/11/2022 answer text <p>Each prison has a Regime Management Plan, which sets out the activities that need to be provided for. A “full regime” – normally described as “Green” on the RAG (Red/Amber/Green) rating system – means that, as the prison is fully staffed on the given day, all planned activities can take place and the establishment is able to meet all the relevant expectations. A “near-full” (Green/Amber) regime means that while the full range of activities can be delivered, there may be some limitations attached to work with low priority.</p><p>How any resource shortage is managed is generally at the Governor’s discretion: where necessary, the regime of activities may be curtailed in order to facilitate higher priority work. In all cases, the focus is on delivering consistent, safe, decent, secure and rehabilitative regimes.</p> answering member constituency East Hampshire answering member printed Damian Hinds question first answered 21/11/2022 10:45:35 answering member 3969 label Biography information for Damian Hinds

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/11/2022 answer text <p>We continue to deliver on the commitments in the Prison Strategy White Paper to reduce reoffending. This work includes investment in digital infrastructure, more training that delivers the skills employers need, more education experts to support Governors and improved support for prisoners with additional learning needs.</p><p> </p><p>Since lifting the National Framework for Prison Regimes and Services in May 2022, we are securing increasing numbers of learners back in the classroom and participating in rehabilitative activities. As set out in the Prisons Strategy White Paper, we are committed to improving education in prisons and we are delivering a Prisoner Education Service to raise prisoners’ levels of numeracy, literacy, skills and qualifications with the aim of helping them secure jobs upon release and drive down reoffending.</p><p> </p><p>The numbers of places being offered on rehabilitative activity such as accredited programmes has increased throughout the prison estate as regimes allow and we are able to run larger groups. For this 2022-2023 delivery year, targets for the number of accredited programme places to be delivered is back up to 90% of pre-covid delivery levels. This is a significant improvement on delivery during covid in 2021-2022 where 1,848 people, around 35% of pre-covid levels, completed an accredited programme in prison.</p><p> </p><p>Despite ongoing challenges, prisons have already achieved over 1,800 accredited programme completions this year to date. Additionally, there is ongoing engagement activity to support individuals into accredited programmes to improve uptake and completion rates. Other non-accredited activity, such as internally approved interventions provide additional support where there is no relevant accredited programme available.</p> answering member constituency East Hampshire answering member printed Damian Hinds question first answered 21/11/2022 17:45:12 answering member 3969 label Biography information for Damian Hinds
