(1) The figures given in column (a) relate to returns from establishment for the night of 27 October; the figures in the remaining columns are the latest available centrally and relate to 30 September.
(2) Some establishments have more than one role and appear more than once in the table. In such cases the figures in columns (c) and (d) relate to the whole establishment and are given on the first occasion it appears in the table. On second and subsequent occasions columns (c) and (d) are left blank.
(3) The figures in column (c) may be distorted by the inclusion of a number of new entrant prison officers spending a preliminary period in establishments before undergoing training.
