MoJ puts public at risk with sex offenders

MoJ puts public at risk with sex offenders

"The National Offender Management Service piloted a new dynamic risk assessment tool (Stable and Acute) for sexual offenders managed in the community in 2008/09.

The tool was used by police and probation staff managing eligible convicted sexual offenders
".

Rather worryingly those using the assessment only receive 2 days training. Furthermore, it states in the report: "The S & A tool has not been tested for efficacy in England and Wales"!
