For the week commencing 31 March, there were 720 immigration detainees in prisons.
Please note that the data includes a small number of individuals who have never served a custodial sentence, but who present specific risk factors that indicate they pose a serious risk of harm to the public or to the good order of an Immigration Removal Centre (IRC) including the safety of staff and other detainees, which cannot be managed within the regime applied in IRCs.
To extract this small number of cases would incur a disproportionate cost.
Foreign national offenders held in prisons beyond the end of their sentence under immigration powers are normally held in unconvicted conditions. Their presence in these prisons does not affect the rehabilitation of British nationals whose access to accredited interventions and other rehabilitation services is governed by risk of offending and offender-related need.<\/p>
At Budget the government announced a new guarantee that everyone with a defined contribution pension will be offered free and impartial face-to-face guidance on their financial choices in retirement when they retire. <\/strong>The government is consulting on how best to deliver this guidance as part of its consultation<\/strong>, \u2018Flexibility and Choice in Pensions'.<\/strong><\/p> In addition, the government will work with the FCA to explore the extent to which regulated advice can be made more affordable through more cost effective delivery, such as through the development of online delivery channels. <\/strong><\/p> <\/p>"}
