Probation
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice how many probation officers he estimates will be made redundant as a consequence of proposed changes to the delivery of probation services.
[139870]
- Answer
-
The Ministry of Justice has recently published the consultation paper ‘Transforming Rehabilitation—a revolution in the way we manage offenders’ which sets out proposals for driving down reoffending by extending rehabilitative provision, opening up service delivery and paying by results.
The consultation paper states that, under our proposals, we expect that probation professionals will work in the public, private and voluntary sectors, protecting the public and delivering rehabilitation services using their considerable skills and experience in working with offenders.
The consultation closes on 22 February 2013 and we will set out further details of how we will reform the way we manage offenders once we have considered responses.
