Mr Sam Gyimah

Contracts with the 21 Community Rehabilitation Companies (CRCs) in England and Wales commenced in February 2015, and are of seven years duration. The Wales CRC is continuing to provide services in accordance with its contract, and is being robustly managed by our contract management team to make sure they fulfil their contractual obligations in relation to service delivery, reducing reoffending, protecting the public and providing value for money to the taxpayer.
