Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, with reference to the Written Statement of 14 June 2022, HCWS99, on Prisons Strategy White Paper: Publication of response to consultation questions, what are the key performance indicators which were introduced in April 2022.

In April 2022 we introduced Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to drive improvements in outcomes by measuring progress with annually published performance ratings for each prison, as set out in the Prisons Strategy White Paper. This is a strategy to cut crime and protect the public with a modern, secure prison estate designed to rehabilitate prisoners. The KPIs will be published in due course.
