The purpose of Integrated Justice Information System is to record and manage justice information for police, courts and corrections from initial arrest and apprehension of a person through all court processes to final disposition including prisoner management.

This is a subjective assessment made by the ABS about the data collected and is not an indication of data quality.
The following tables provide a detailed analysis of the availability of specified data elements in the data source. The data items have been grouped into four counting units: 1. Context; 2. Person; 3. Incident/Event; and 4. Transaction. Tables are absent from the entry in cases where the data source contains no data items which relate to the particular counting unit/s. Context Please note: This data source does not contain any data items relevant to this counting unit. Person
Data are entered into Integrated Justice Information System by police officers or court clerks. Clerks are trained to follow procedures for consistent and accurate recording. The checking process is a stringent one with well documented procedures. The ‘principal penalty’ rule is used in Integrated Justice Information System. Where an individual is before the court for several offences, the penalty against which his/her case is recorded is the more serious one, for example, armed robbery and breach of DVO would reflect the penalty for armed robbery. SCOPE / TARGET POPULATION All persons who have a Domestic Violence Order given to them by the Northern Territory courts. COVERAGE Where an individual is before the court for several offences, only the more serious penalty is recorded. As no Domestic Violence flag is attached to a court case and individuals with a more serious concurrent offence will not be counted as a Domestic Violence offence in Integrated Justice Information System data.
