Such a huge reduction in numbers will inevitably mean that some children in custody will be further from home, as we always place into the available establishment which best meets their needs.  We are pleased that overall, inspectors did not find a child\u2019s distance from home to negatively affect their experience of custody.<\/p>\n<p class=\"last-child\">The report makes a number of recommendations which we will carefully consider. We will see how best to implement these as we also consider recommendations arising from Charlie Taylor\u2019s final report on youth justice, when it is published.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3 id=\"notes-to-editors\">Notes to editors<\/h3>\n<p>You can read the report on the <a rel=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justiceinspectorates.gov.uk\/hmiprisons\/inspections\/\">HMI Prisons website<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"contact postal-address\" id=\"contact_1779\">\n<div class=\"content\">\n<h3>Youth Justice Board media enquiries<\/h3>\n<div class=\"vcard contact-inner\">\n<p class=\"adr\">\n<span class=\"fn\">Youth Justice Board press office<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"street-address\">102 Petty France<br \/>\n<br \/>\nLondon<br \/>\n<br \/>\nSW1H 9AJ<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"email-url-number\">\n<p class=\"email\">\n              <span class=\"type\">Email<\/span><br \/>\n              <a class=\"email\" href=\"mailto:Media1@yjb.gsi.gov.uk\">Media1@yjb.gsi.gov.uk<\/a>\n            <\/p>\n<p class=\"tel\">\n              <span class=\"type\">Press office<\/span><br \/>\n              020 3334 6446\n            <\/p>\n<p class=\"tel\">\n              <span class=\"type\">For out-of-hours please contact the following<\/span><br \/>\n              07958361491\n            <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Youth Justice Board (YJB) commissioned HMI Prisons to assess the impact of distance from home on children in custody.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74522"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=74522"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74522\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=74522"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=74522"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=74522"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
