APPENDIX EXPERIMENTAL COMMUNITY-BASED CORRECTIONS DATA


INTRODUCTION

This appendix presents experimental data for Indigenous persons in community-based corrections. Data are presented as the number of Indigenous persons on community-based corrections orders on the first day of the month.

Corrective Services agencies have undertaken significant work to improve the quality of Indigenous data over the last 12 months, hence data can now be published on an experimental basis.
