I have asked Tony Cameron, Chief Executive of the Scottish Prison Service to respond. His response is as follows:The net present value calculation was made using the formula as follows:Net present value of the stream of cashflows = CF₁/(1+r)¹ + CF₂/(1+r)² + CF₃/(1+r)³.....CF_N/(1+r)^NWhere:CF = Cashflow in the periodr = Discount RateN = Last period in the stream of cashflowsThe stream of cashflows is expressed in cash value real terms, i.e. net of inflation. The net present value (NPV) calculation has been calculated on the basis of the cashflow occurring at the end of the time period in question. Discount rates of 6% and 5% were applied to the cashflows to derive the NPVs.

Separate cashflows were not calculated for the Private Build Public Operate models as these were compiled by reference to the PSC and Private Build Private Operate models.

(a) Five hundred and forty-five. (b) The model does not separately identify grades.(c) The labour and labour related costs in cash value real terms are as follows:

The Net Present Value (NPV) of each risk was not calculated in isolation in the PSC model. However, the NPV of each category of risk was calculated using a 6% discount rate and may be summarised as follows:

Risk Category	Total Cash Value Real (£000)	NPV (£000)
Site Planning and Construction Risk	19,294	17,802
Facility Risks	34,329	15,458
Strategic Risks	21,031	8,327
Total	74,654	41,587

The detailed information in respect of each risk identified in the document in cash value real terms is as follows:

Her Majesty's Prison Service provided the net present values (NPVs) as at the contract date for each prison in England and Wales. PricewaterhouseCoopers used the following methodology to calculate the NPV figures:NPV_a = [((NPV_h/L_k) x (1 + (GWI_n-GWI_s)/GWI_n)) + ((NPVh/NL_k) x (1 + (TPI_n-TPI_s)/TPI_n))]/(C x D)Where:NPV_a = The net present value per prisoner place yearNPV_h = The net present value of the specific PPP Private Build Private Operate prison as provided by Her Majesty's Prison Service (HMPS)L_k = The labour element of the NPV, determined from the analysis of the labour/non-labour split per the HM Prison Kilmarnock PSC.GWI_n = The General Wage Inflation index at the PSC base date as provided by the National Statistics OfficeGWI_s = The General Wage Inflation index at the date of financial close for the specific PPP Private Build Private Operate prison as provided by the National Statistics OfficeNL_k = The non-labour element of the NPV, determined from the analysis of the labour/non-labour split per the HM Prison Kilmarnock PSC.TPI_n = The BCIS All-in TPI index at the PSC base date.TPI_s = The BCIS All-in TPI index at the date of financial close for the specific PPP Private Build Private Operate prison.C = The number of years of the concession.D = The number of prisoner places per HMPS figures.

The cash value real figures have been calculated by determining the equivalent annual cash value real balance which, if discounted back to Cash Value Real would give a NPV equal to the figure provided by Her Majesty's Prison Service. This calculation assumes a 6% discount rate, a 25 year operating concession and a two-year construction period.

I have asked Tony Cameron, Chief Executive of the Scottish Prison Service to respond. His response is as follows:No payment is made for accreditation of the offending behaviour programmes described in Schedule D. Counselling is a day-to-day function in all Scottish prisons for which there is no programme accreditation.

I have asked Tony Cameron, Chief Executive of the Scottish Prison Service (SPS) to respond. His response is as follows:Counselling is a day-to-day function in all Scottish prisons for which there is no programme accreditation. Offending behaviour programmes at HMP Kilmarnock are accredited through the same processes and to the same standards as in any other Scottish prison, viz by the Scottish Prison Service Programme Accreditation Panel, the majority of whom are external to SPS. The Kilmarnock Anger Management Programme received accreditation in 2001.

I have asked Tony Cameron, Chief Executive of the Scottish Prison Service (SPS) to respond. His response is as follows:Sections 12.4.1 and 12.4.2 of Schedule D requires the operators of HM Prison Kilmarnock to provide offending behaviour programmes based on induction and assessment processes aligned to those employed by SPS. That is being done.
