Paragraph: 39
Female Offender Strategy lacks clear evidence of diverting women from custody through improved OOCDs.
Conclusion
The Female Offender Strategy set out an ambition to improve Out of Court Disposals (OOCDs). However, the Strategy did not set out how this would be achieved, and to date, there has been no clear evidence to suggest that more women have been diverted away from custody through improved use of OOCDs.
