Prison law funding
The 2010 Standard Crime Contract introduces new arrangements for Prison Law work, including the Prison Law supervisor standard and a system of fixed and standard fees.
Prison law training: the 2010 Standard Crime Contract
We are running training events for providers that have been awarded Prison Law contracts as part of the recent tender for the 2010 Standard Crime Contract.
What does the training cover?
This practical training will help you to understand the new Prison Law contract. This session will focus on the rules for conducting prison law work, including the need to apply for prior authority for treatment cases and the way that the new fee schemes work.
Who should attend?
Prison Law supervisors, contract liaison managers, and partners with day-to-day responsibility for Prison Law. As only providers with Prison Law contracts will be able to undertake work under the new contract, firms without Prison Law contracts need not attend.
