Reading app to help prison leavers turn new page
Press release
A new app to boost prison leavers’ literacy is the latest part of a £20 million government plan to reduce reoffending through innovation.
Survivors will be better protected from domestic abusers who attempt to continue their campaign of terror from behind bars.
Thousands more people will get access to early legal help over the next 2 years after the government announced £12 million of new grant funding.
Victims will be better protected from abusers who share intimate images without their consent, under a raft of changes to the law announced today (25 November 2022).
Terrorists face longer in jail for offences in prison
Press release
Terrorists who continue offending in prison will always face the prospect of more time behind bars, the Deputy Prime Minister announced today (Sunday 20 November).
Nearly 1,000 prison leavers have been tagged in the first year of a scheme designed to crackdown on booze-fuelled crime.

This email is for any FOI queries/requests (for recorded information). For any other types of queries/requests, please use the relevant contact form(s) above.
Where at all possible, please email your enquiry rather than sending correspondence by post. This is because most staff are working from home unless absolutely necessary, and access to posted FOI requests is intermittent; this may cause delay to your enquiry being answered in time. We’re sorry for any inconvenience this might cause.
