| Notes: | Provides an overview public policy initiatives that apply to known sexual offenders who live in the community. It is argued that the evidence base supporting the implementation of registration schemes, community notification, and offender residency restrictions is limited. There is a need to develop policies which are more tailored to the needs of individual offenders and which are explicitly designed to manage risk. Policies which mandate and facilitate interagency and partnership working represent one way in which individualised and research-informed approaches can be developed. The implementation of this type of approach may lead to more effective community responses to preventing reoffending than those which rely solely on monitoring and supervision. |
