“…Programme practitioners reported linking into one or both of two formal multi-agency responses which operate throughout England and Wales at the time of writing. Some men – but not all – were incorporated into the local Multi-agency Public Protection Arrangements (MAPPAs) (see Kemshall et al, 2005; Maguire et al, 2001 for more detail). WSWs reported that they might feed into these be it through providing information or (in some cases) attending meetings.…”

This article examines the role of the victim and, more specifically, the nature of Women’s Safety Work within cognitive-behavioural programmes designed to address the attitudes and behaviour of men with convictions for violence against their partners. It is an increasingly important part of probation practice. The article draws on an empirical study conducted in 10 probation areas across England and Wales. It identifies, and critically examines, the factors which shape working with victims of domestic violence. These include the challenge of engaging partners and ex-partners with Women’s Safety Work; the ‘contested’ nature of work with women; and facets of risk management. This article is written with a practitioner focus in mind and implications for practice are discussed.

The policing task and the expansion (and contraction) of British policing

Over the past four decades the police service strength in England and Wales grew by nearly a third. This was at a time when the population grew by just 10 per cent. This sustained period of growth came to an end with the 2010 spending review which called for a 20 per cent cut in government funding of the police. In this paper the expansion of the state police is examined, expansion that is all the more remarkable coming at a time of increased competition and -from the mid-1990s onwards -falling levels of recorded crime. But not only did the number of police officers increase, so too their roles and responsibilities, reflective of Simon's (2007) governing through crime meta-narrative and symptomatic of the criminalization of social policy -or more specifically the 'policification' (cf. Kemshall and Maguire, 2001). In this context it is argued that enforced contraction could be a positive opportunity to reappraise what the state police ought to be doing. The policing task is conceptualized as being either wide policing or narrow policing. Examples are given where narrowing may be both possible and beneficial. It is acknowledged that other agencies are facing similar cuts and may not be able pick up tasks left by the police. However, it is argued there are tangible benefits of having a state police that is more focused.

An area of concern that has been given increasing recognition is the need for consistency in practice across the different 42 MAPPA areas in England and Wales.…”

“… 2. MAPPA was introduced into legislation through the Criminal Justice and Courts Service Act (CJCSA) 2000 and Criminal Justice Act (CJA) 2003. These arrangements have been subject to research evaluations (Kemshall et al, 2005; Maguire et al, 2001; Wood and Kemshall, 2007) and guidance (see, for example, Home Office, 2003, 2004, 2007; MoJ, 2007, 2012). MAPPA involves a tiered system of risk management of registered sexual offenders (category 1), violent offenders (category 2) and ‘other dangerous offenders’ (category 3) at Level 1 (low/medium risk), Level 2 (high risk) or Level 3 (critical risk).…”

Disparities in public protection measures against sexual offending in England and Wales: An example of preventative injustice?

This article analyses the use of criminal justice measures aimed at the prevention of sexual offending across England and Wales. Specifically, it focusses on measures such as the 'sex offenders register' and sexual offences prevention orders (SOPOs) and the use of sanctions for their breach. Following a discussion of the apparent tensions between individual rights and public protection measures we present an original analysis of data collated from Multi-Agency Public Protection Arrangement (MAPPA) area reports over a nine-year period. Our analysis reveals considerable variation between areas in both the risk-level allocation of cases, the imposition of SOPOs and sanctions for non-compliance with MAPPA. We argue that these disparities raise issues concerning both the rights and autonomy of those subjected to public protection measures and highlight the need for further detailed research into MAPPA practices.
