On 22 October 2007, the Probation Service published 42 reports on the management of offenders under Multi-Agency Public Protection Arrangements (MAPPA). MAPPA enables the responsible authorities (police, prisons, and probation) to identify and manage offenders in the community through the sharing of information and expertise. The reports highlight the work undertaken through MAPPA to protect communities from the risk posed by dangerous offenders.
This is the sixth year in which annual reports by the 42 Responsible Areas in England and Wales have been published, following the implementation of MAPPA in 2001.
