Accepted
We accept this recommendation. MoJ is setting up Employment Boards and an Employability Innovation Fund that will explore the sorts of incentives we can provide business to recruit prisoners. This might include tailoring training to meet their needs or providing the opportunity to set up some workshops within prisons. We will continue to keep this area under review.
