Giving offenders opportunities to improve their basic and vocational skills can enhance their prospects of getting a job and is a major part of the Government's policy for reducing re-offending. In 2003, Ministers decided that the Learning and Skills Council (the LSC) should take over responsibility for a new Offenders' Learning and Skills Service which, after piloting, the LSC rolled out across England in July 2006. Delivering learning and skills to offenders is challenging, because the operational requirements of the Criminal Justice System takes priority, and because offenders often have other problems such as mental health difficulties and dependence on alcohol or drugs.

Improving procurement in further education colleges in England
The 2004 Gershon Efficiency Review proposed procurement as one of the main sources of efficiency savings in the public sector. The Learning and Skills Council, which funds England's 384 further education colleges, estimates that from an annual procurement expenditure of £1.6 billion, colleges could make savings of £75 million by March 2008.

They now need to modernise their systems so as to maximise ...

There is a misperception that the sole purpose of AtW is to provide physical aids, equipment and transpo...
Helping Those in Financial Hardship
The Social Fund provides a safety net to help those on low incomes, when they find it hard to pay for important items or cope with emergencies. There are seven types of award but in this report the Committee has considered five: budgeting loans, crisis loans, community care grants, funeral payments and sure start maternity grants. The report looks at three main areas: raising awareness of the Social Fund; its administration; and whether it treats people consistently.
