Recommendation
Reduce demand for police, courts and corrective services, and associated infrastructure by establishing and implementing specific cross-agency stretch targets, measures to achieve these targets and publicly reporting progress against these targets each year. The targets should:
- seek to reduce the need for additional built infrastructure
- focus on measures related to prevention, early intervention, rehabilitation and reducing recidivism
- expressly address over-representation of Aboriginal people in the criminal justice system.
