Regulatory Impact Assessment for the Offender Management Bill

The overall aim of the Offender Management Bill is to contribute to the reduction of re-offending and the protection of the public by improving the way in which offenders are managed and supervised. In particular, the Bill removes the public sector monopoly on the provision of probation services and enables the Secretary of State to commission services from the best available provider in the public, private or voluntary sector.


This document contains an overarching Regulatory Impact Assessment for the Offender Management Bill, an RIA for the proposed new arrangements for provision of probation services and an RIA for the transfer of powers to contracted prisons and secure training centres. It also contains a Race Equality Impact Assessment.
