Abstract:
Probation services in England were re-unified and brought back into public ownership on 26 June 2021, following the privatisation and division of services that took place under Transforming Rehabilitation. Probation in Wales had already been brought fully under the public ambit in December 2019, following the collapse of the Community Rehabilitation Company (CRC), which had operated there. The re-unification of probation services has been welcomed across a range of quarters, from trade union bodies and parliamentarians to the probation inspectorate. However, many who have welcomed the decision have also noted the heavy toll that years of disruption have had on probation services in England and Wales. A disruption that has been particularly marked in the impact on the probation workforce.
