The future of probation in Wales
4th September, Bridgend, free
The Ministry of Justice has announced a public consultation on proposals to stabilise the delivery of probation services over the next two years and a longer term strategy for probation services beyond 2020.
Proposals for arrangements in Wales are substantially different to those in England and include:
- integration of the offender management functions of the Wales CRC into NPS Wales so that a single organisation is responsible for managing all offenders, providing opportunities to improve services across prisons and probation
- exploring options for the commissioning of rehabilitation services in Wales which reflect the delivery landscape and the skills and capabilities of providers.
As part of the Ministry of Justice market and stakeholder engagement activity for this consultation, Clinks is hosting an event for the voluntary sector In Wales.
The event will provide an:
- Overview of the proposals from the HMPPS Wales
- Opportunity to feed in your views to HMPPS Wales regarding how voluntary sector engagement can be improved in future probation services
- Opportunity to feed in your views to Clinks’ consultation response.
