We work to improve the use and effectiveness of pre-court diversion to keep communities safer.
Diversion is a way of addressing low-level criminal behaviour, ensuring that people are given a proportionate resolution and, where appropriate, avoiding putting people through the formal criminal justice processing (either through out of court disposals or prosecution) that can result in a criminal record. Smart use of these schemes can create better outcomes for those diverted and keep communities safer.
