It follows that robust and timely local measures for assessing reoffending must be created. To this end, for the last three years the National Offender Management Service has produced quarterly reconviction reports for individual probation areas based on 'snapshots' (cross-sectional samples) of the supervision caseload. An independent examination of the data for the East Midlands Region reveals that the way cases have been selected and followed-up departs from the conventions employed in all previous ('longitudinal') reconviction studies in England and Wales. vV.56,n.2dJune 2009pp.111-127tProbation JournalcLondon aDIREITO PENITENCIÁRIO aEXCUÇÃO DA PENA aMEDIDAS DE EXECUÇÃO NA COMUNIDADE aPROBATION aREINCIDÊNCIA aHEDDERMANbCarol jP.105 104P__105_00000000000000052021-12-17926217aDGRSPcDGRSPkP.105n2021-12-17o0rAP
