Why the report matters
Annual reports help explain how public services operate, record their activities and provide accountability. For the justice sector, reporting is particularly relevant because probation work connects court decisions, offender supervision, rehabilitation and public protection.
The publication also gives policymakers, legal professionals, researchers and members of the public a central source for information about the service. Oversight of justice agencies forms part of a wider system that includes An Garda Síochána, the Courts Service, the Irish Prison Service and the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions.
