Lord Falconer of Thoroton – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Ministry of Justice

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Falconer of Thoroton on 2015-10-13.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the Written Answer by the Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Prisons, Probation, Rehabilitation and Sentencing on 9 September (HC5660), how many National Offender Management Service Staff were delivering commercial work for Just Solutions International; and of those, how many had been doing so full-time.

Lord Faulks

Just Solutions international (JSi) was established in 2012 and formally launched in 2013. In September this year, it was announced that JSi would cease to operate.

3.5 full time staff worked under the JSi brand. These staff also worked on other core business within the National Offender Management Service. An additional five staff were temporarily seconded from the Public Sector Prison Service in March 2015. All staff have been reallocated to focus on domestic priorities.
