## Population In Custody May 2010 - Key Points Resumption Of Publication And Use Of New Data Source

Publication of the monthly population in custody bulletin was suspended from August 2009 
to March 2010 due to technical problems relating to the supply of data for statistical purposes. Publication of the bulletin was resumed in April 2010 as announced on the MoJ website http://www.justice.gov.uk/publications/populationincustody.htm Figures in the resumed bulletin are based on a new data source, consistent with the published weekly prison figures. In order to provide a consistent comparison with the previous year, data for 2009 has also been taken from the new data source, which means that these figures will not match the monthly 2009 data published previously. The total prison population given for May 2009 is 41 lower than the figure previously published.  

## Population In Custody (Prisons, Secure Training Centres And Secure Children'S Homes)

 The population in custody on 31 May 2010 was 85,500, a rise of 2,200 from a year 
earlier. The population in prisons was 85,000 (a rise of 2,200 from a year earlier), in 
Secure Training Centres (STCs) it was 270 and in Secure Children's Homes (SCHs) it 
was 170. 

## Population In Prison

 The male prison population increased by 3 per cent (up 2,100) to 80,700 and the female 
prison population increased by 2 per cent (up 80) to 4,300 in May 2010 compared to May 2009.  The adult population in prison was 73,400 at 31 May 2010, an increase of 3 per cent (up 
2,000) from a year earlier. Over the same time period the number of 15 to 17 year olds fell 21 per cent (down 450) to 1,700 and the young adult prison population (see 
definitions) increased 7 per cent (up 630) to 10,000 at 31 May 2010.  
 It was expected that the withdrawal of the end of custody early release scheme would 
add between 1,000 and 1,200 to the daily prison population by the end of May 2010.  The remand population in prison fell 2 per cent from 13,200 in May 2009 to 13,000 in 
May 2010 (down 280). Within this total, the untried population fell 4 per cent (down 370) to 8,400 and the convicted unsentenced population rose 2 per cent (up 90), to 4,600. 
 
 There were 71,000 sentenced(1) prisoners at 31 May 2010, an increase of 4 per cent 
from a year earlier (up 3,000).  There were increases in those serving sentences of all sentence lengths except 6 months to less than 12 months, which fell by 1 per cent (down 30). The number of prisoners serving a sentence of less than 6 months rose 17 per cent between May 2009 and May 2010 (up 660) and those serving sentences of 4 years or more increased by 6 per cent (up 1,400). The number of prisoners serving indeterminate sentences (Life sentences and indeterminate sentences for public protection - IPPs) increased by 8 per cent (up 930) to reach 13,000.   
  

## 

 There were 5,300 recall prisoners at 31 May 2010, down 440 from a year earlier.  In terms of offence groups, amongst the remand population the largest proportionate 
increases since May 2009 were for other offences (up 130, 7 per cent), drug offences 
(up 70, 4 per cent) and sexual offences (up 30, 3 per cent).  The largest proportionate 
falls since May 2009 were seen in those serving sentences for motoring offences (down 30, 31 per cent), fraud and forgery (down 70, 14 per cent) and robbery (down 170, 11 per cent).  
 
 Amongst the sentenced(1) prison population the largest proportionate increases were for 
theft and handling (up 780, 25 per cent), other offences (up 1,180, 19 per cent) and 
sexual offences (up 1,140, 14 per cent) from May 2009. The largest proportionate 
decreases since May 2009 were for those serving sentences for fraud and forgery (down 
420, 21 per cent), motoring offences (down 140, 13 per cent) and burglary (down 560, 8 per cent).  The prison population was 110 per cent of the 'In Use CNA' (77,600) at 31 May 2010. 
(1) Includes recalls and excludes fine defaulters (see Table 2) 

## Notes Data Sources And Quality

The data presented in this brief are drawn from the prison administrative IT systems.  
Although care is taken when processing and analysing the returns, the detail collected is subject to the inaccuracies inherent in any large-scale recording system.  While the figures shown have been checked as far as practicable, they should be regarded as approximate and not necessarily accurate to the last whole number shown in the tables.  They are fit to be used for purposes of looking at trends and for comparing the relative magnitude of components. The prison population information is now drawn from a single prison source.  Although different from the source used up to June 2009, it  contains the same details for individual inmates such as date of birth, sex, religion, ethnic origin, custody type, offence, reception and discharge dates and, for sentenced prisoners, sentence length. These data are collected on a central database and are used to produce all the analyses in this publication. The overall reliability of the sentence length data has increased, but in a small number of cases sentence length data is missing and has been imputed. Sentence lengths have been imputed for around 1,500 cases in the May 2010 dataset. As a different data source is now being used for this publication, data for 2009 will not match the monthly 2009 data published previously. There are also two changes to the presentation of the data: 

 The numbers in each sentence length band now exclude recalls which are shown as 
a separate subgroup within the total sentenced population (previously recalls were included in the relevant sentence length bands).  
 The sentenced population groups "less than or equal to 6 months" and "greater than 
6 months to less than 12 months" have been slightly revised to "less than 6 months" 
and "6 months to less than 12 months" respectively as a result of using the new data 
source. 
Unless otherwise stated, numbers in the text have been rounded for ease of reading using the following rules: Numbers of 100,000 and over are rounded to the nearest 1,000 Numbers from 1,000 - 99,999 are rounded to the nearest 100 
Numbers from 10 - 999 are rounded to the nearest 10 Numbers under 10 are unrounded. Information on the population in STCs and SCHs has been supplied by the Youth Justice Board. All figures are provisional pending publication of the annual Offender Management Caseload Statistics.
