As part of the Scheme - given the name the "10 Prisons Project" by the MoJ - Governors were given extra funds to spend on measures including for new X-ray body scanners, sniffer dogs, extra staff and basic repairs.

Lucy Frazer - who replaced Mr Stewart as prisons Minister - said she was "encouraged" by the new figures.

"We are already using what has worked to improve the rest of the estate, spending £100m on airport-style security to stop The Scourge of mobile phones and drugs that fuel crime and disorder in jails," she added.

But critics of the Scheme said the MoJ's project did not go far Enough .

Prisons Minister Lucy Frazer said The Project will influence future spending by the MoJ

The Chief executive of the Howard League for Penal Reform, Frances Cook, said the measures "will fail to deliver if prisoners are given nothing to do and released with nowhere To Live ".

She added: "Tightening security in a few troubled prisons is all well and good, but ministers will have to take a different approach if they want to tackle the problems in More Than 100 jails across the Country . "

The charity Prison Reform Trust welcomed the reduction in violence but warned that the 10 prisons project and the fate of a prisons Minister "always risked being a distraction from The Real issue" of overcrowding.

A spokesman added: "Any glimmers of systemic improvement will be quickly snuffed out if we return to the failed 'prison works' policies that have created this calamity in the First Place . "

The government has also pledged to recruit thousands of extra prison officers and create 10,000 additional prison places in England and Wales .
