Public Service Agreement (PSA) Targets PSA targets were set for the CJS in the Spending Review 2004 (SR 2004) for 2005-08.The targets, reported on at pages 10-11, are the responsibility of the Home Office, DCA and the CPS. Similar PSA targets were also set in the Spending Review 2002 (SR 2002) for 2003-06 and are reported on at pages 14-16. The relationship between the SR 2002 and the SR 2004 targets is shown below. PSA Targets Progression Map SR 2002 PSA 1 Improve the delivery of justice by increasing the number of crimes for which an offender is brought to justice to 1.15 million by 2005- 06, with an improvement in all CJS areas, a greater increase in the worst performing areas, and a reduction in the proportion of ineffective trials. PSA 2 Improve the level of public confidence in the CJS, including increasing that of ethnic minority communities, and increasing year on year the satisfaction of victims and witnesses, whilst respecting the rights of defendants. Efficiency Savings SR 2004 also requires the CPS to deliver £34 million efficiency savings by March 2008 (pages 12-13). Additionally the value for money PSA target set in SR 2002 is still being taken forward (page 16). The CPS has no workforce reduction target in SR 2004 but has set a target of relocating 20 posts by 31 March 2008. CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM PERFORMANCE 9 SR 2004 PSA 1 Improve the delivery of justice by increasing the number of offences for which an offender is brought to justice to 1.25 million for 2007-08.

10 SR 2004 PROGRESS ON DELIVERY Performance Measures Latest Outturn PSA Target 1: Improve the delivery of justice by increasing the number of offences for which an offender is brought to justice to 1.25 million for 2007-08. ‘Offences brought to justice’ counts the number of offences for which someone is convicted, cautioned, has had taken into consideration by the court, or for which they receive a penalty notice (for some disorder cases), or a formal warning for possession of cannabis. Only notifiable offences are counted. Increasing the number of offences for which an offender is brought to justice. The target will be met if there are 1.25 million crimes for which an offender is brought to justice in the year ending March 2008. The target for the period 2005-06 is to bring 1.15 million offences to justice.This target was modified in SR 2004 superseding the previous target of 1.2 million offences brought to justice in 2005- 06. At the same time, a higher target of 1.25 million offences brought to justice was set for 2007-08. On Course. Latest performance on offenders brought to justice is 1.271million 1 in the year ending December 2005.This is 26.8% above baseline. Performance must be maintained but provisional data shows that we are already ahead of the 2007-08 target level. 1 This data is provisional and is likely to be subject to minor revision. The figures quoted here were correct at 11 April 2006.
