Pre-court disposals

We work to improve the use and effectiveness of pre-court disposals.

To keep our communities safer while minimising the collateral consequences of prosecution on people’s future life chances, we work to improve the use and effectiveness of pre-court disposals. Pre-court disposals are an evidence-based way of addressing low-level criminal behaviour, especially for children and young people, those from minoritised communities, and for women who offend.
