An annual publication of statistics on community payback and other social work orders, including breaches and terminations of orders, as well as criminal justice social work (CJSW) reports and other areas of CJSW.


Table 12 Community payback orders with an offender supervision requirement commenced by length of supervision requirement: 2011-12 to 2013-14

  2011-121 2012-13 2013-14
Orders with supervision requirement 6,364 8,816 9,413
6 months or less 575 632 689
More than 6 months - 12 months 3,381 4,472 4,694
More than 12 months - 18 months 1,460 2,178 2,242
More than 18 months - 24 months 847 1,292 1,423
More than 24 months - 36 months 101 242 365
Average length (months) 14.5 15.2 15.5

Notes: Figures for 2011-12 include cases where the requirement was imposed after commencement of the order but these cases are excluded for the 2012-13 & 2013-14 data. For cases where the length of the requirement was amended after the order was imposed, figures for 2011-12 are for the most recent length, while those for 2012-13 & 2013-14 are for the length when the order was first imposed. This is due to the change from an aggregate to unit-level return, but the effect is not considered to be substantive.
