National Probation Service



The National Probation Service of England and Wales is a statutory Criminal Justice Service, mainly responsible for the supervision of offenders in the community. It was established in its current form by the Criminal Justice and Court Services Act in April 2001, but has existed for a century or more as a set of Area based services interacting at arms-length with central government.
