Ministry of Justice publishes quarterly statistics

Justice Secretary David Lidington said:

“Since becoming Justice Secretary last month, my top priority has been on improving safety and security in our prisons. These figures reinforce how crucial it is that we make progress as quickly as possible.

“As the Chief Inspector of Prisons rightly observed in his annual report last week, we cannot achieve successful reform and rehabilitation unless our prisons are safe and secure – and this is something I am committed to achieving.

“I have seen first-hand the challenges our dedicated and hardworking prison staff face. Boosting the frontline is critical to achieving safety and the number of prison officers we are recruiting is rising, with the number of new prison officers joining the service at its highest level since 2010. ”
