§ Mr. Simon HughesTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how each young offender institution, including those managed privately, has performed against the key performance indicators in the last 12 months for which figures are available; and if he will make a statement. [140548]
§ Mr. BoatengPerformance against Key Performance Indications (KPI) for young offender institutions for the financial year 1999–2000 is set out in the table.
Establishments are categorised by their main function only. For establishments with a multiple function, these figures represent the average of all activity in that establishment.
Ashfield young offender institution (operated by the private sector as a result of a Design, Construct, Manage and Finance [DCMF] contract) opened in November 1999 and performance shown is for the part-year only. Sickness data are not collected for private prisons and cost per place data are not comparable with public prisons' data as the cost includes an element of capital repayment.
The overcrowding KPI is formulated in terms of overall Prison Service capacity and population levels and is not applicable to individual prisons. Correspondence data from Thorn Cross young offender institution are not available. KPI results for all establishments were published in the Prison Service Annual Report and Accounts for 1999–2000, a copy of which was placed in the Library.
