Abstract

This Data Explained summarises experiences and learning from working with the Ministry of Justice Data First Cross-Justice System datasets while producing research on the effects of offender supervision on re-offending. This publication is intended to help guide future researchers using these data. Specifically, we outline how re-offending measures for prison leavers can be constructed from the data. We also provide feedback into future dataset development and documentation. This article was originally published by ADR UK (Administrative Data Research UK). Find out more at adruk.org.
