    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to include restraining order breach information in OASys risk assessments and prison recall reports and reviews

    Wider context from the report

    “During the 39 days between conviction and release the offender phoned Angela Craddock on 160 occasions. Most of the calls did not connect. The offender also wrote several letters to Angela Craddock from prison in breach of the Restraining Order. Details of the Restraining Order were sent to HMP Altcourse and on receipt a paper copy of the conditions were placed in an envelope to be delivered to the Public Protection Department. This was never received so the relevant staff were not aware of the Restraining Order. Consequently, upon release on licence the community rehabilitation service were unaware of the breaches of the Restraining Order and were unable to include this information in the OASys risk assessment or the prison recall report and review, ultimately sent on to the police for the enforcement of the recall notice. ”
