Prisoners on Remand

Mr Meacher: To ask the Secretary of State for Justice how many people held on remand (a) nationally and (b) in London in the last year have been held for (i) three to six months, (ii) six to nine months, (iii) nine to 12 months, (iv) one to two years and (v) more than two years whilst awaiting trial. [103617]

Mr Blunt: Information on the number of persons held on remand awaiting trial in the last year by subsequent remand length cannot be produced without incurring a disproportionate cost. However, work has recently been undertaken by the Ministry of Justice to estimate the time on remand of a sample of prisoners received into prison in 2009.

Of all those persons received into prison in England and Wales on untried remand in the first quarter of 2009, the following table shows the distribution by subsequent remand length. To provide equivalent information for those held in London prisons would incur disproportionate cost.

Data Sources and Quality: These figures have been drawn from administrative IT systems which, as with any large scale recording system, are subject to possible errors with data entry and processing.

Reparation by Offenders

Gloria De Piero: To ask the Secretary of State for Justice how many neighbourhood justice panels have been established since May 2010. [103488]

Mr Blunt: Neighbourhood justice panels currently exist in some areas as a local innovation in engaging local communities in achieving restorative outcomes to antisocial behaviour and low-level offending which affects them.

The Government are committed to testing the approach of neighbourhood justice panels, and from May 2012 we will be working with 15 panels to evaluate their effectiveness.

Further details will be announced shortly when the Government set out their plans for reforming criminal justice.

Youth Custody: Yorkshire and the Humber

Karl Turner: To ask the Secretary of State for Justice how many juvenile offenders from each local authority in the Yorkshire and Humber region were held in (a) a secure children's home, (b) a secure training centre and (c) a young offender institution in each month since May 2005. [103498]

Mr Blunt: The tables show the number of juvenile offenders (aged 10 to 17) either sentenced or remanded in custody attached to each Youth Offending Team (YOT) in the Yorkshire and Humber region who have been held in a (a) secure children's home, (b) secure training centre and (c) under 18 young offender institution in each month since May 2005 to February 2012.

These data have been provided by the Youth Justice Board (YJB). The YJB holds data at the YOT area level, not at the local authority level. YOT area data may cover more than one local authority area.

This is based upon monthly snapshot data. Therefore one young person who is serving more than one month in custody will be shown in more than one month in the table.

The data from April 2011 onwards are provisional and will be finalised when the 2011-12 Youth Justice Statistics are published in 2013.

These figures have been drawn from administrative IT systems, which, as with any large scale recording system, are subject to possible errors with data entry and processing and can be subject to change over time.
