Notes: See Section 5 for details of the HDC scheme.
1. Average daily population figures for Home Detention Curfew exclude prisoners recorded as unlawfully at large. This is due to a time lag in recording the outcome of recall procedures in certain cases, which results in an over-estimate of the HDC population if these cases are included. Counting conventions for prisoners recorded as unlawfully at large are described in more detail in the Notes on tables section.
2. Figures for 2007-08 were revised in the 2009-10 data release as a result of technical difficulties in recording the outcome of recall procedures in certain cases. The revised figures are about 10% lower than those published in the original 2007-08 release.
3. Re-admissions typically involve a voluntary return to custody.
