Today we have published a report that covers the common themes our inspectors found across all 14 Crown Prosecution Service Areas, in our most recent programme of inspections. Our inspectors found very good practice across the CPS but also uncovered some poor practices including a lack of recorded strategy to manage cases. This report will help us improve our future inspections. We will share this report with CPS to help them improve their service, which will strengthen the criminal justice system and fully deliver for victims of crime https://lnkd.in/eRcD-ShQ

What about getting wiser without leaving your comfortable chair? Probably everyone knows that alternatives to imprisonment are important part of the criminal justice system design. Its also important to look how to use and implement alternatives at pre-trial phase. That will be done on 11th of April at the webinar of European Organisation of Prison and Correctional Services (EUROPRIS). By the way - in the web the seats are not limited, so I welcome you to join with us to gain new information and ideas. https://lnkd.in/dKNcbpXx

As always GI-TOC leads the way. The Palermo Convention is nothing without effective implementation and enforcement. This has been proven clearly in the EU by the falling short of the 2008 Eco-crime Directive in the area of organized crime and its recent revision to address the issue. Albeit, without proper anti-corruption and anti-transnational organized crime Law revision and its effective enforcement Europe will remain subjugated by corruption, criminal infiltration, and illicit trafficks, with all corresponding financial, health, and societal damages.
