Dear Department of Corrections,

 

I would like to request the following information

have been released in prison in total.

 

(2) Of these how many were released due to

(a) The completion of their sentence.

(b) Early release due to parole

(c) Release on conditions

 

(3) For each of these three categories, how many proceeded to

(a) Reoffend within 12 months of release

(b) Reoffend at all while still under early release or parole conditions

(c) Reoffend at any point regardless of time-frame after release or being
under release conditions.

 

(4) For each of these three categories how many were recalled to prison
for

(a) Breaching parole or release conditions.

(b) New offences not specifically related to parole/release conditions. 

 

Please additionally break this down by race/ethnicity and gender. 

 

Where possible please provide this information in a tabular spreadsheet.

Please ensure that all results are based on calendar year

 

Yours faithfully,
