An average cost per prisoner, costs per prison place and overall prison unit costs for each private and public sector prison in England and Wales are routinely published by Her Majesty\u2019s Prison and Probation Service. This information is produced on an annual basis and is published after the end of each financial year. Information on prison expenditure can be accessed in the Prison and Probation Performance Statistics pages for each financial year on the www.gov.uk<\/a> website. Prison unit costs can be found within the Excel document titled Costs per prison place and cost per prisoner by individual prison establishment under the \u2018Cost by Establishment\u2019 tab. The most recent published figures for financial year 2017-18 can be accessed on the www.gov.uk website from the following link: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/prison-performance-statistics-2017-to-2018<\/a> We are investing tens of millions of pounds extra in prisons to ensure they remain places of rehabilitation and safe for prisoners and staff. This includes the recruitment and training of over 3,500 new prison officers in the last two years which has increased our spending on prisons. This investment ensures prisoners have a genuine chance to turn their lives around and ultimately protects the public from crime.<\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>

Prison population statistics and workforce statistics are regularly published. Population statistics can be found at: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/offender-management-statistics-quarterly<\/a>. HM Prison and Probation workforce statistics (which contains staffing figures in public sector prisons but not in privately managed prisons) are published quarterly. The latest publication can be found at: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/her-majestys-prison-and-probation-service-workforce-quarterly-march-2018<\/a><\/p>

Below is a table showing the average number of Prison Officers present in Public Sector Prisons, alongside annual average prison population figures. The population data was based on the 12 month end prison populations apart form for 2008 and 2009. Due to technical problems relating to the supply of data for statistical purposes, month end population data was not available for the period from July 2009 to February 2010, so data for the last Friday of the month has been used instead (except for December 2009, where the 18 December was used). In relation to the workforce data the figures include Band 3-4 / Prison Officer (incl specialists), Band 4 / Supervising Officer and Band 5 / Custodial Managers working in public sector prisons. It should be noted that as with all HR databases, extracts are taken at a fixed point in time to ensure consistency of reporting. However, the database itself is dynamic and where updates to the database are made late, subsequent to the taking of the extract, these updates will not be reflected in figures produced by the extract. For this reason, HR data are unlikely to be precisely accurate.<\/p>

Prison officer numbers are at their highest in five years, which is vital to ensuring prisons are safe, secure and decent. We now have over 3,500 additional staff in post compared to October 2016. The recruitment drive will continue until we reach required levels across the prison estate, ensuring prisons can fulfil their purpose - protecting the public, reducing reoffending and crucially, rehabilitating offenders.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4137", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Rory Stewart"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Penrith and The Border"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Rory Stewart"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-11-01", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-11-01T17:11:42.533Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "54"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Justice"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Justice"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-10-29", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Prisons"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what the average (a) prison population and (b) number of prison officers was in each of the last 10 years in England and Wales.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1409", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr Gregory Campbell"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "East Londonderry"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Mr Gregory Campbell"} ], "uin" : "184897"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/997198", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Ministry of Justice"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/997198/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

An average cost per prisoner, costs per prison place and overall prison unit costs for each private and public sector prison in England and Wales are routinely published by Her Majesty\u2019s Prison and Probation Service. This information is produced on an annual basis and is published after the end of each financial year in the Prison and Probation Performance Statistics pages on the www.gov.uk<\/a> website.<\/p>

<\/p>

There are a number of factors which will cause differences in costs between individual prisons which are common to both public sector and private sector prisons, such as the size, age, location, design and security category of the prison, the mix of prisoners (including gender and age) and the internal regime and rehabilitation programmes followed. Public and private sector groups of prisons are not homogenous in terms of prison category and these factors may result in a greater impact on average costs rather than whether the prisons are public or private sector.<\/p>

Additionally, the costs of public and private prisons may not be directly comparable because of differences in accounting treatment and the scope of services provided. In terms of accounting treatment, the operating costs are based on resource expenditure as recorded in HMPPS Annual Accounts. The different financing methods of PFI prisons mean that in an individual year, overall operating costs are not directly comparable.<\/p>

Similarly, there are differences between contracted prisons where variations in the scope of costs for each private prison contract will reflect different contract specifications. For instance, a number of private sector contracts include the provision of health and education services, whereas within the public sector these services are provided by other government departments and so are not included.<\/p>
