1. ‘Transforming Rehabilitation’ Association of YOT Managers Oldham 11 July 2013 Sue Hall Chair PCA

2. ‘Transforming Rehabilitation’ Drivers for Reform Ideological commitment to shrinking the state, competition & Payment by Results High reoffending rates, particularly of short-term prisoners Need to free up funding ‘to provide rehabilitation for those who need it most’ (short term prisoners) Competition to release efficiencies and drive down unit costs – to fund transition and increase in caseload Longer term – reduced demand on CJS

3. Separation of Retained and Competed Services Retained services – National Probation Service to be created by April 2014 Competed services – Government owned companies - Community Rehabilitation Companies – to be established to manage competed services – Contracts for CRC’s to be competed and transferred by end 2014 – Private sector / voluntary sector can compete - also probation mutuals

4. National Probation Service Much smaller public sector to be restructured – greater centralisation Will continue to provide advice to courts, parole board Will directly manage high risk of serious harm cases Responsible for the risk of harm of all adult offenders on statutory orders (including those managed by other providers – will have a ‘policing’ function)

5. National Probation Service indicative structure 4 delivery levels 150 Local Delivery Units (LDUs) – link to Local Authority LDU cluster management Wales England - 6 divisions (flexible boundaries) National directorate (Approx. 6000 staff?) North East North West Wales Midlands South West London South East

6. Community Rehabilitation Company Transfer of 70-80% current probation caseload – Offender management of community orders & post- custody licences for all cases except high risk of serious harm / MAPPA – All rehabilitative interventions (including community payback) New statutory intervention for short term prisoners / min. 12 mths supervision for all prisoners – approx. 40,000 additional cases

7. Caseload Projections (est.)

8. 21 Proposed Contract Package Areas

10. RESTRUCTURING PROBATION Allocating staff and workload to retained/competed services RESTRUCTURING PROBATION Allocating staff and workload to retained/competed services COMPETITION Selecting the prime provider for each Contract Package Area COMPETITION Selecting the prime provider for each Contract Package Area LEGISLATION Offender Rehabilitation Bill LEGISLATION Offender Rehabilitation Bill To be achieved by end 2014 DESIGN OF OPERATING MODEL How it works in practice DESIGN OF OPERATING MODEL How it works in practice

11. Restructuring – 4 stages Designing the split (June – August 2013) Separation of staff / cases by April 2014 – National Probation Service (retained services) – Community Rehabilitation Company (competed services) Testing design out operating model (April – Oct 2014) Competition for competed services (August 2013 – Oct 2014) New providers take over CRCs (Oct – Dec 2014)

12. Competition To be launched in August Invitation to tender – late 2013 / spring 2014 Contracts awarded – October 2014 7 year contracts? Percentage – Payment by Results? Not known Who will win the contracts? Staff mutuals?

13. What will it mean for YOS? Majority of young adults will transfer to Community Rehabilitation Company – New risk assessment tool being designed to allocate cases CRC will be transferred as a ‘going concern’ - important to establish robust processes before new providers take over contract in autumn 2014

14. What will it mean for YOS? Implications for current probation secondees – will be allocated to either National Probation Service or CRC. Potential for industrial unrest. New providers will be contractually required to provide staff for YOS
