  1. Agenda Item No: 9(d) Safer Stockton Partnership 9 July 2013 Transforming RehabilitationJune 2013

  2. What is the purpose of the briefings? • Ensure all staff are aware of the Government’s proposals for change and the planned timescales • Share what we know about the Government’s implementation plans – and be clear about what we don’t yet know • Give staff the opportunity to discuss the implications and challenges ahead and to ask questions

  3. Quick summary of planned changes 1 National Probation Service 35 Probation Trusts 18,000 staff 250,000 cases 21 ‘NewCos’ (and then sell company) 550 buildings 500+ contracts 1,000+ partnerships 2,500+ local Apps

  4. What is the Government hoping to achieve? • Reduced costs • Reduced reoffending • Reduced size of public sector • Greater involvement of private sector

  5. The new National Probation Service • Approx 30% of the business. • Will deal with high risk offenders, including MAPPA cases, plus breaches, services to Courts, Approved Premises and Victims work • Regional structure – local LDUs, a local manager & senior manager structure, ultimately managed by NOMS via a regional Deputy Director and overall a national Director • Relevant staff will transfer over to NPS and become civil servants

  6. Newco • The 35 Trusts have been organised into ‘Contract Package Areas’ – 21 across the country. DTV is a CPA on its own – current geographical boundary. • A “Newco” will be set up in each CPA, owned by the Secretary of State, to take on the remaining work of the Trust. • Staff will become employees of the Newco rather than the Trust, which will no longer exist. • The bidders will bid for ownership of the Newco (puchase of shares) and Payment by Results will come in.

  7. What happens next? Four key issues: • Keeping the “day job” going – business continuity • Transfer to NPS • Transfer to Newco • DTV response

  8. What happens next? Phase 1: by end August 2013 (“Mobilisation”) • “Split on paper” within each Trust • NOMS will provide Trusts with criteria to identify which offender cases will go into the NPS and which will go into the Newco • Staff will NOT be identified by this stage – processes for this not yet agreed nationally

  9. What happens next? Phase 2: by April 2014 (“Internal Restructure”) • Allocate staff and cases to NPS/Newco using processes agreed nationally • Implement “shadow” arrangements for new structures Phase 3: by October 2014 (“Transition to New Structures”) • Transfer staff to NPS/Newco • New operating model goes live Phase 4: by December 2014 (“Go live”)
