David Davis: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many life sentence prisoners have been released on parole in each month since January 1995. [171248] Paul Goggins: Release details for all life sentence prisoners are only available in the monthly format requested from 1 April 2000 onwards. Information for the period 1995-99 is available only by calendar year. The annual release figures for the calendar years 1995-99 are as follows. _________________________________________________________________________________________________. Number (first time releases only) 1995 92 1996 85 1997 98 1998 98 1999 122 _________________________________________________________________________________________________.

Subsequent data includes cases where prisoners have been re-released following recall from life licence. Releases on life licence April 2000--March 2004 _________________________________________________________________________________________________. Month Year Number of releases October 2003 40 November 2003 15 December 2003 30 January 2004 15 February 2004 31 March 2004 38 _________________________________________________________________________________________________. The lifer population in June 1995 stood at just under 3,300 and has risen at roughly 8 per cent. per year to the current level of over 5,500. This increase in population has been reflected in the number of lifer cases considered each year by the independent Parole Board and in the number of cases where release was recommended (or directed) by panels. Following the European Court of Human Rights judgment in the case of Stafford in May 2002, the Parole Board is now responsible for the release of all tariff expired lifers, including mandatory lifers.

Mrs. Gillan: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many life sentence prisoners were recalled to custody during each of the last 48 months; and what the reasons for recall were. [168022] Paul Goggins: The numbers of life sentence prisoners recalled to custody from 1 April 2000 onwards are shown in the table. However, the reasons for these licence revocations are only recorded from October 2002. Life licences can be revoked for a specific reason or a combination of reasons. In broad terms, a licensee's recall to custody is likely to occur in two main areas. Firstly, where specific behaviour, criminal or otherwise, is giving rise to concerns over the potential risk of harm to the public. Secondly, where probation staff are unable safely to manage the level of risk as a result of the licensee's non-compliance with licence conditions. Other issues will frequently combine with these main factors, most notably concerns relating to alcohol and drug misuse. Of the 70 lifers recalled from 1 October 2002 to 31 March 2004, the reasons for recall were listed as: actual or potential risk of harm to others (17 cases); breach of licence conditions (20 cases); either or both of the above factors, linked to other concerns over behaviour (33 cases).
