Prison officers do a challenging and vital job to help protect the public and we are committed to making sure we have enough staff to deliver safe regimes in our prisons.<\/p>

<\/p>

Detached duty is one of the sensible and proportionate measures we take to cover resourcing pressures and ensure we run safe and decent regimes in prisons as well as being able to respond appropriately to any operational issues that arise.<\/p>

<\/p>

In 2016 the former Secretary of State announced HMPPS would be recruiting an additional 2,500 prison officers by December 2018. Good progress is being made to hit this target, with 1,970 additional officers recruited by 31st<\/sup> December 2017. These new staff will reduce the need for Detached Duty.<\/p>

<\/p>

When there is a need to accommodate staff in hotels, we work hard to ensure the best possible value for money for the taxpayer and have controls in place to help keep costs to a minimum.<\/p>

<\/p>

Where possible, bookings are for specifically timed trains and always in standard class to help keep costs to a minimum.<\/p>

<\/p>

We are able to provide data on hotels and rail bookings made through Redfern Travel Ltd only<\/strong>.<\/p>

All DFID staff are bound by both the Civil Service Code and DFID\u2019s Code of Conduct, which set clear standards of conduct to protect all staff and anyone the organisation has contact with. These codes are well publicised to staff and cover any form of sexual exploitation and abuse, bullying, or harassment of staff, partners or beneficiaries and make clear that staff should not do anything in their private conduct which might discredit the department. DFID has mechanisms to allow staff raising concerns with management along with a distinct whistleblowing hotline which staff can use anonymously to report cases. A breach of any of the standards set out in our Code of Conduct can lead to formal disciplinary action and potential dismissal for gross misconduct.<\/ins><\/p>

<\/ins><\/p>

As previously announced by the Secretary of State, DFID is currently reviewing any locally reported allegations of sexual misconduct involving its own staff. This will complete shortly and therefore we are not currently in a position to share the detail of any cases.<\/ins><\/p>

<\/p>

DFID\u2019s Dignity at Work policy confirms that DFID is committed to achieving equality of opportunity for our staff and will not tolerate any form of discrimination, harassment, bullying or victimisation of employees, this includes sexual harassment and other non-consensual sexual activity. The policy applies to all staff and includes personal responsibilities to create and sustain a working environment free of bullying and harassment where individuals are treated with fairness, dignity and respect. The policy also makes clear how staff should report any concerns.<\/del><\/p>

<\/p>

DFID\u2019s standards of conduct set out the ethical behaviours and controls required in our day to day work to incorporate the key principles based on the UN\u2019s code on sexual exploitation and abuse in Humanitarian crises. DFID\u2019s Public Interest Disclosure Policy (Whistleblowing) also allows staff and others to raise concerns anonymously to a confidential Email address.<\/del><\/p>

<\/p>

The number of staff formally reported for sexual harassment in the last three years is:<\/del><\/p>

<\/p>

2015 - nil<\/del><\/p>

2016 - nil<\/del><\/p>

2017 - under five.<\/del><\/p>

NHS Digital is the organisation responsible for collecting and publishing National Health Service complaints data. These data were collected annually until 1 April 2015. NHS Digital now collects these data quarterly and monthly data are not available. The attached tables show quarterly data received in respect of NHS mental health services for the periods requested.<\/p>

<\/p>

Because of changes to the method and frequency of the data collection NHS Digital currently classify data from April 2015 as \u2018experimental\u2019 so they cannot be compared with previous years.<\/p>

Fact sheets for the preparers levy were used from 2009/10 when the preparers levy was extended to cover large private companies and public sector organisations. The fact sheets used the word \u201crequired\u201d in explaining the rates applied to different categories of preparers. They also included similar wording to that included in the 2018/19 fact sheet which was placed in the Library of the House in<\/del> attached to the<\/ins> response given<\/ins> to question HL5095. This makes clear that the Financial Reporting Council collects the levy from all preparers on a voluntary basis.
