Number of sentenced prisoners serving less than three years, broken down by offence
Mike Lee made this Official Information request to Department of Corrections
The request was successful.
From: Mike Lee
Dear Department of Corrections,
Could you please provide me with the number of sentenced prisoners who are serving a term of less than 3 years, broken down by their most serious offence (ideally at the lowest level possible, e.g.ASOC Division, Sub-Division, and Group). I appreciate that the data changes daily so it's fine if the data is at any particular date in the past year, if that makes it easier.
The background of this request is to better understand the number of prisoners, and the mix of offences they committed, who will be newly entitled to vote if the 'Electoral (Registration of Sentenced Prisoners) Amendment Bill' passes this year prior to the general election.
Raw or untidy data formats are fine if that makes it easier to provide the info.
Yours faithfully,
Mike Lee
