G4S
(asked on 22nd February 2016) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government how many fines G4S has paid under any contract with the Ministry of Justice in each of the last five years; and why each of those fines were imposed.
The Ministry of Justice holds a large number of centrally and locally managed contracts with G4S and therefore information on the total financial remedies imposed could only be obtained at a disproportionate cost. However, we do hold information on the total financial remedies imposed on G4S-run custodial establishments.
Information relating to Young Offender’s Institutes (YOIs) and secure training centres (STC) were as follows:
There have been two incidents in the last five years in which financial remedies were applied at Medway STC. In both cases, G4S failed to comply with operating procedures. In the same time period, there was one incident for which financial remedies were applied at Rainsbrook STC, for failing to comply with operating procedures.
Financial remedies applied to private prisons, including HMP/YOI Parc since 2010 are set out in the following table.
