Services valued at A$210m

15 June 2011

Serco Group plc (Serco), the international service company, announces today
that it has signed a contract for the provision of Court Security and Custodial
Services (CSCS) to the Western Australian Department of Corrective Services.
The contract, which is expected to commence on 31 July 2011, has a value to
Serco of around A$210m (approximately £140m) over five years, with two options
to extend to a maximum 10-year term.

Under the contract we will provide inter-prison transfers, court security
services and the operation of court custody centres. Measures in our proposal
to ensure the safety and wellbeing of those in our care include: Correctional
Practice training for all staff accredited to a nationally recognised standard
for the first time on this contract; new operational procedures with robust
systems and processes to identify, analyse, manage and mitigate risks; and
regular internal and external audits across all locations.

We will also introduce the Serco Escort Record System (SERS) to support the
safe management of people in custody and ensure transparency of service
delivery. This proven technology will achieve comprehensive, dynamic security
at all times during the movement of people in custody.

Christopher Hyman, Chief Executive of Serco Group, said: "We are delighted that
the Western Australian Department of Corrective Services has chosen us to
support them in operating their Court Security and Custodial Services. This
builds on our achievements and record at Acacia Prison in Western Australia, as
well as our expertise in providing this vital part of the criminal justice
system in the UK."
