Details

Post Sentence Supervision was introduced by the Offender Rehabilitation Act 2015, and has the effect of increasing the combined period on supervision post-release by individuals to 12 months when subject to a determinate custodial sentence of more than one day but less than 24 months.

This Framework reformats the previous Prison Service Instruction (PSI)/Probation Instruction (PI) and makes understanding the differences between supervision on licence and supervision on Post Sentence Supervision easier than ever before.
