The National Audit Office (NAO) recently published their report examining the implementation of the Transforming Rehabilitation reforms which saw the part privatisation of probation services in England and Wales.

In the wake of the critical NAO report we thought it would be timely to revisit the journal’s Transforming Rehabilitation issue first published in December 2013. Featuring articles by Fergus McNeill, Russell Webster, Anne Worrall and Jane Dominey among others and an editorial by Paul Senior warning of the “rush to change”, the papers presented in this special issue universally expressed concerns about the implications of the then proposed reforms.

Could the problems identified by the National Audit Office have been avoided?  Let us know what you think. If you would like to comment via a blog post contact us on: bjcj@mmu.ac.uk or tweet us @bjcommunityjust.
