answer text <p>The Unduly Lenient Sentence (ULS) scheme allows anyone to ask me to review certain sentences passed in the Crown Court and, where appropriate, to invite the Court of Appeal to consider increasing them.</p><p> </p><p>My office already does much to publicise the scheme. We publish ULS referrals on the website and work with local and national print and broadcast media to publicise them. Details of how to refer a case appear on the web site <a href="https://www.gov.uk/ask-crown-court-sentence-review" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/ask-crown-court-sentence-review</a>. My Office also promotes sentence increases on social media and distributes infographics online to increase public awareness.</p><p> </p><p>In 2016, more victims and their families got justice than ever before, after 141 criminals had their sentences increased under the ULS scheme.</p><p> </p><p>That year, we received 837 referrals, a 17% increase from the previous year, and the Solicitor General or I asked the Court of Appeal to look at 190, compared to 135 in 2015.</p><p> </p>

answer text <p> </p><p> </p><p>Pre-Sentence Reports currently fall into three categories; Standard Delivery (SDR), Fast Delivery (FDR), and Same Day (or Oral) reports. This process allows Courts the flexibility to deliver sentencing decisions in the appropriate timeframe, depending on each individual case, reducing the number of adjournments and expediting the criminal justice process.</p><p> </p><p>The Transforming Rehabilitation reforms will introduce a new Risk of Serious Recidivism (RSR) tool which will be used to inform the allocation of cases to new Community Rehabilitation Companies (CRCs) or the National Probation Service (NPS) and complements the pre-sentence report process. Our testing with operational staff in Trusts of the RSR tool indicates that it is straightforward to use, in line with our commitment to minimising bureaucracy for frontline staff.</p><p> </p><p>The new National Probation Service (NPS) will be responsible for advice to courts and, prior to sentence, the NPS will advise courts on sentencing options for cases as part of a pre-sentence report (in accordance with the reserved function of advice to court under section 4 of the Offender Management Act 2007).</p>

answer text <p> </p><p> </p><p>Pre-Sentence Reports currently fall into three categories; Standard Delivery (SDR), Fast Delivery (FDR), and Same Day (or Oral) reports. This process allows Courts the flexibility to deliver sentencing decisions in the appropriate timeframe, depending on each individual case, reducing the number of adjournments and expediting the criminal justice process.</p><p> </p><p>The Transforming Rehabilitation reforms will introduce a new Risk of Serious Recidivism (RSR) tool which will be used to inform the allocation of cases to new Community Rehabilitation Companies (CRCs) or the National Probation Service (NPS) and complements the pre-sentence report process. Our testing with operational staff in Trusts of the RSR tool indicates that it is straightforward to use, in line with our commitment to minimising bureaucracy for frontline staff.</p><p> </p><p>The new National Probation Service (NPS) will be responsible for advice to courts and, prior to sentence, the NPS will advise courts on sentencing options for cases as part of a pre-sentence report (in accordance with the reserved function of advice to court under section 4 of the Offender Management Act 2007).</p>
