Robert Buckland
The Minister of State, Ministry of Justice
The Government set out its plans for the future of probation in the response to the public consultation Strengthening Probation, Building Confidence, published on 16 May 2019. We are now working with stakeholders and partners to develop more detailed plans for the future model.
Our intention is that probation regions to be created as part of future arrangements in England and Wales will be coterminous with police force areas.
