Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many and what proportion of people released on an end of custody supervised licence were subject to a serious further offence review in each month since October 2023.

End of Custody Supervised Licence (ECSL) began in October 2023. Analysis of its use will be based on at least one year’s worth of data and published in line with the same approach we take for other statistical releases such as deaths of offenders in the community.

Figures on the number of serious further offence (SFO) reviews for 2023/24 will be published in October 2024. Figures will be accessible using the following link:
