Population in custody June 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 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 June 2009 is 63 lower than the figure previously published.  
Population in custody (prisons, secure training centres and secure children’s homes) 
 The population in custody on 30 June 2010 was 85,400, a rise of 1,600 from a year 
earlier. The population in prisons was 85,000 (a rise of 1,600 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 2 per cent (up 1,700) to 80,700 and the female 
prison population fell by 1 per cent (down 40) to 4,300 in June 2010 compared to June 
2009. 
 The adult population in prison was 73,300 at 30 June 2010, an increase of 2 per cent (up 
1,500) from a year earlier. Over the same time period the number of 15 to 17 year olds 
fell 22 per cent (down 460) to 1,700 and the young adult prison population (see 
definitions) increased 6 per cent (up 570) to 10,000 at 30 June 2010.  
 The remand population in prison fell 2 per cent from 13,300 in June 2009 to 13,000 in 
June 2010 (down 270). Within this total, the untried population fell 3 per cent (down 240) 
to 8,500 and the convicted unsentenced population fell 1 per cent (down 30), to 4,500. 
 There were 71,000 sentenced(1) prisoners at 30 June 2010, an increase of 4 per cent 
from a year earlier (up 2,400).  There were increases in those serving sentences of all 
sentence lengths except 6 months to less than 12 months, which fell by 2 per cent (down 
70). The number of prisoners serving a sentence of less than 6 months rose 8 per cent 
between June 2009 and June 2010 (up 350) and those serving sentences of 4 years or 
more increased by 6 per cent (up 1,300). There was a 2 per cent rise in the number of 
prisoners serving a sentence of more than 12 months to less than 4 years (up 500).  The 
number of prisoners serving indeterminate sentences (Life sentences and indeterminate 
sentences for public protection - IPPs) increased by 8 per cent (up 950) to reach 13,100. 
 There were 5,400 recall prisoners at 30 June 2010, down 600 from a year earlier.

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 data 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. 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 
1,400 cases in the June 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 have been two changes to the presentation of the data since the resumption of this 
publication in April 2010: 
 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 2011 Offender Management Caseload 
Statistics.

Data Sources and Quality
These figures have been drawn from administrative IT systems.  Care is taken when processing and analysing the returns, but the detail collected is subject to the inaccuracies inherent in any large scale 
recording system, and so although shown to the last individual, the figure may not be accurate to that level.
