The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what the recall rate was for offenders released under the End of Custody Supervised License scheme between October 2023 and June 2024.

Answered by Sir Nicholas Dakin

The recall rate for people released under the End of Custody Supervised Licence (ECSL) scheme that have been recalled in the most recent period for which data is available could only be obtained at a disproportionate cost.

9,782 number of recalls took place between April 2024 and June 2024, which coincides with the highest level of quarterly ECSL releases under the previous Government.
