to make sure they fulfil their contractual commitments and deliver effective probation
services.</p><p> </p><p>Data on CRC performance against service levels are published
quarterly, with the latest data published in July: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/community-performance-quarterly-and-annual-2016-to-2017"

The first set of final reoffending data for offenders supervised by CRCs will be published
later this month and thereafter data will be published quarterly.</p><p> </p><p>We
have already taken action to change CRC contracts so they can focus on critical operational
services, and we continue to work with them to ensure they protect the public and
rehabilitate offenders.</p><p> </p>
