BEDFORDSHIRE PROBATION BOARD PUBLICATION SCHEME
INTRODUCTION
Welcome to the Bedfordshire Probation Board Publication Scheme
- Under Section 19 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000, the Probation Board has undertaken to
adopt and maintain a scheme for the publication of Probation Service information.
- This publication scheme has been designed to help you find how the Probation Board carries out its
aims and objectives. As part of the National Probation Service, the Board's purpose is to be a law
enforcement agency that:
- delivers community punishments,
- supervises and works with offenders within the terms set by the court or Parole Board in ways
that help offenders to reduce their offending and that better protect the public, and
- gives support to the victims of serious crimes.
Its aims are to:
- protect the public
- reduce re-offending
- ensure the proper punishment of offenders
- ensure offenders are aware of the effects of crime on victims and the public, and
- rehabilitate offenders.
