Work is underway to implement an improved NOMS/YJB protocol to ensure that effective transition arrangements are put in place between the youth and adult justice systems. Alongside this, national standards for youth justice are currently being revised to strengthen and clarify expectations with regard to transfer of information between youth offending teams and probation. Guidance has been provided through regional implementation mechanisms on how to deal with the transfer of information between the ASSET and OASY’s risk assessment tools used by youth and adult systems respectively.
