Justice written question – answered at on 9 February 2012.
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice pursuant to the answer of 16 January 2012, Official Report, column 520W, how many juvenile offenders in each youth offending team area (a) received a court disposal, (b) were sentenced to custody, (c) were remanded in custody and (d) were subject to court ordered secure remand in England and Wales between April 2010 and March 2011.
The following table shows the number of juvenile offenders in each youth offending team (YOT) in England and Wales who (a) received a court disposal; (b) were sentenced to custody; (c) were remanded in custody; and (d) were subject to court ordered secure remand between April 2010 and March 2011.
The data to answer this question have been drawn from across two administrative databases within the Youth Justice Board (YJB). The data for court and custodial disposals come from the Youth Justice Management Information System (YJMIS), the data for remand to custody and court ordered secure remand come from the Secure Accommodation Clearing House System (SACHS).
Due to delays in technical updates to the YJMIS in the latter part of 2011 there are some data quality issues with the court disposal data. For this reason, the YJB has not published this local level data and is currently waiting for the completion of the YJMIS update and a resubmission of the 2010-11 data before publishing.
These figures have been drawn from administrative IT systems, which, as with any large scale recording system, are subject to possible errors with data entry and processing and can be subject to change over time.

(1) Data is not available Notes: 1. Data for columns (a) and (b) The columns labelled (a) and (b) in the table show the number of (a) court disposals and (b) custodial sentences given to young people (aged 10 to 17) in each YOT area in England and Wales between April 2010 and March 2011. These are court disposals as reported by YOTs to the YJB through the Youth Justice Management Information System (YJMIS). Due to delays in technical updates to the YJMIS in the latter part of 2011 there are some data quality issues with these data (to note, the data provided here will not match the records held on local YOT case management systems). For this reason, the YJB has not published these local level data and is currently waiting for the completion of the YJMIS update and resubmission of the 2010-11 data before publishing 2. Data for columns (c) and (d) The columns labelled (c) and (d) in the table show the number of episodes started by young people (aged 10 to 17) attached to each YOT who were (c) remanded in custody and (d) subject to court ordered secure remand (remand to secure accommodation) in England and Wales between April 2010 and March 2011. An episode refers to a period a young person has spent in custody and it is possible that one young person can start more than one custodial episode at different points of each year for different offences or for change in legal basis for detention. These figures come from the YJB’s Secure Accommodation Clearing House System (SACHS) database. 3. All of these figures have been drawn from administrative IT systems which, as with any large scale recording system, are subject to possible errors with data entry and processing and may be subject to change over time. |
