To ask Her Majesty’s Government what assessment has been made of reoffending rates for (1) ex-prisoners who have undertaken enterprise courses, and (2) those who have not.
Lord Keen of Elie
The Advocate-General for Scotland, Lords Spokesperson (Ministry of Justice)
Data published by my department on the impact of employment on reduced re-offending relies on data drawn together from across the Criminal Justice System, supplemented by data on the employment and benefit status of offenders from a data sharing agreement between MoJ, DWP and HMRC.
That data does not enable any comparative assessment of reoffending rates for ex-prisoners who have or have not undertaken enterprise courses.
