Appointment of Acting Chief Executive of Northumbria Probation TrustNick Hall has been appointed as acting chief executive. Prior to this, he held the position of deputy chief executive/director of resources. Northumbria Probation Trust commenced operation on 1 April 2010 as a locally governed, public sector provider of probation services. This comes at a time of economic downtown and shrinking resources in the public sector. Our primary challenge therefore is to maximise efficiencies whilst maintaining our traditionally high levels of performance and further developing our services for offenders, victims and the public. The board and senior management team has developed a three year strategic plan to this end and Nick will take forward its implementation. The Criminal Justice System as a whole faces further changes over the forthcoming year, and we await further detail of the promised sentencing reform and rehabilitation revolution in the Green Paper in October. We hope the changes will present new opportunities for partnership working, sharing resources and expertise to ensure all offenders receive the level of intervention and support they need to break the cycle of offending.
