Written Question
London Community Rehabilitation Company: Vacancies
Thursday 15th October 2015

Asked by: David Amess (Conservative - Southend West)

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many posts at which levels are vacant in the London Community Rehabilitation Company.

Answered by Andrew Selous - Second Church Estates Commissioner

Since they transitioned to new owners on 1 February 2015, Community Rehabilitation Companies (CRCs) have been contractually required to maintain a professional and appropriately skilled workforce to deliver the services set out in their contracts. The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) does not currently maintain data relating to posts and staffing levels in CRCs


CRCs are responsible for their own staff training needs, such as for managing female offenders. As part of their bids, the new owners were required to put forward plans to ensure female offenders are properly supported. Similarly, it is for CRCs to decide on appropriate job titles for their staff


The MoJ closely monitors the performance of CRCs, in line with government standards, to make sure they fulfil their contractual commitments to maintain service delivery, reduce reoffending and deliver value for money to the taxpayer.
