Our priorities

Public safety

Keeping communities safe by ensuring offenders complete the sentences and orders handed down by our justice system and are held to account if they don’t. This will always be our bottom line.

Reducing re-offending

Cutting the rates of re-offending leaves fewer victims and adds significantly to the social well-being of our communities as offenders become productive members of our society. This is our ultimate goal.

Better public value

We face a challenging economic environment so our commitment is to achieve more with every taxpayer’s dollar, freeing up resources where we can, while improving our service responses.

Leadership

Using our unique insights into offending behaviour, we must lead across the public service and within the community sector, a programme of change that achieves our goals and those of the communities we serve.
