The main role of the Probation Service is to protect the public and create safer communities by helping offenders to desist from committing more crime. In that, it is trying to reduce reoffending and manage offenders' safety in the community by reintegrating prisoners after release while providing an effective and efficient value for money service. What portion of the €41 million budget in the Probation Service involves an restorative justice approach?
