Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many people who were supervised by the Community Rehabilitation Company in Wales have entered paid employment or education following (a) supervision after completing a sentence of 12 months or less and (b) an interview with education and employment staff in the latest period for which figures are available.
This information is not collected centrally and can only be obtained at disproportionate cost.
The Probation Service Review proposed that probation providers measure outcomes which include Housing, Education and Employment monitoring at specific key points throughout the offenders journey, including commencement and end of supervision periods. The measure is proposed for implementation in due course and guidance has been issued to inform recording practice to capture this data.
