The average length of time prisoners currently spend at HM Prison Huntercombe is 6 months. Prisoners may leave the prison for a range of reasons because they have reached their Early Removal Scheme (ERS) date and are being deported or because are moving to detention ordered by the Home Office or are being released on licence.
