Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many and what proportion of offenders who received a fixed term recall for reoffending during their licence period and were given a prison sentence for the new offence served a period in prison which was longer than the fixed term recall in each year since 2008.
The data required to answer this question is not held centrally. To ascertain the information would require a manual check through individual case records and this would exceed cost limits.
