The Department of Justice (DoJ) today published Research and Statistics Bulletin on Adult and Youth Reoffending In Northern Ireland (2019/20 Cohort).
This annual Official Statistics publication provides information on the one year proven reoffending rate for offenders who received a non-custodial disposal at court, a diversionary disposal or who were released from custody during 2019/20 within Northern Ireland. Information is presented in relation to the full cohort and also disaggregated in relation to adults (those aged 18 and over) and youths (those aged 17 and under). The main findings of this report are presented below.
Adult and Youth Reoffending in Northern Ireland (2019/20 Cohort)
Of the 20,392 people included in the 2019/20 cohort, 3,358 (16.5%) reoffended during the one year observational period (adults 16.0%, youths 24.8%).
[1] Base reoffending rates should not be used to measure the comparative success of different disposal types in their own right. The reason for this is that different offender characteristics and histories, coupled with different offence types, will themselves be related to the type of disposal given. Therefore, offender profiles may differ substantially between the different disposal types.
