Probation
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice whether, in the event of implementation of his proposals for outsourcing of probation tasks, the public-sector probation service will be organised on a local, regional or national level.
[142581]
- Answer
-
The Ministry of Justice has recently published the consultation paper ‘Transforming Rehabilitation—a revolution in the way we manage offenders’, which set out our plans for reforming the way in which offenders are rehabilitated in the community.
In that consultation paper, we propose that the public sector will be reorganised in the most efficient manner to deliver its responsibilities. This will require fewer trusts or a different structure (such as a single national probation trust or direct delivery on behalf of the Secretary of State). Our consultation paper invites views on what kind of delivery structure would be most appropriate for the public sector probation service.
The consultation closes on 22 February 2013 and we will set out further details of our proposals once we have considered responses.
