Dear Sir or Madam,

Good Evening. I am requesting information regarding the performance
of the recruitment function of the shared service centre in
Newport, Gwent.

1. What percentage of applicants who pass their RAD (Recruitment
Assessment Day) are placed with in the 8 week period as promised by
the Vetting Department?

2. What are the mean waiting times from passing the RAD to starting
a position within the Prison Service?

A regional breakdown would be more that helpful.

3. What percentage of people pass/don't pass the vetting procedure?

4. Is there a complaints procedure in place for people who are
waiting an excessive amount of time for the vetting procedure.

Kindest Regards,

Ian
