We work to improve the use and effectiveness of out of court resolutions.
To keep our communities safer, we work to improve the use and effectiveness of out of court resolutions. Out of court resolutions, including diversion and deferred prosecutions, are an evidencebased way of addressing lower harm criminal and anti-social behaviour, ensuring that people are given a proportionate intervention, and victims are given swifter justice. Better use of out of court resolutions can create better long term outcomes, especially for children and young people, those from minoritised communities, and for women who offend.
