Best value in probation

Open date: 09 April 2008

Close date: 02 July 2008

A 'best value' regime is going to be introduced into probation, and the government is consulting on how it should work.

This new system would involve probation boards and trusts reviewing probation services to demonstrate and drive their economy, efficiency and effectiveness, and making appropriate amendments to the delivery of those services. 

The consultation paper asks a number of questions about how the new system should work.
