Prisoners' Release: Reoffenders
(asked on 28th November 2024) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what the re-offending rate is for prisoners serving sentences of Imprisonment for Public Protection who are released.
The Ministry of Justice routinely publishes data in the proven reoffending quarterly statistics on the proportion of offenders serving Imprisonment for Public Protection (IPP) sentences who reoffend. Figures can be found in Table C2a: proven-reoffending-oct22-dec22-3-monthly.ods.
I have provided figures from the latest publication on the last four quarters of available data:
| Jan - Mar 2022 | Apr - Jun 2022 | Jul – Sep 2022 | Oct - Dec 2022 |
Proportion of IPP offenders who reoffend (%) | 4.8 | 9.5 | 6.5 | 2.3 |
