Six line charts which show how various justice social work statistics were affected over the period of the Covid-19 pandemic and also show what has happened since then. All of these statistics fell sharply between 2019-20 and 2020-21, apart from diversion from prosecution cases which rose. Bail supervision cases and structured deferred sentences have risen sharply since 2020-21 to historically high levels. Diversion from prosecution cases rose again in 2021-22, then fell slightly in 2022-23, before rising again to a historic high level in 2023-24. Voluntary throughcare cases and statutory throughcare community cases in 2023-24 remain below the levels prior to the pandemic. Statutory throughcare custody cases rose in 2023-24 to exceed the level prior to the pandemic. Last updated September 2024. Next update due September 2025. — Justice social work statistics in Scotland – Part 1
