Probation instructions (PIs)

Imported from official source

This page lists all current probation instructions (PIs). From 2019, all new prison and probation operational policies are published as policy frameworks.

If the PI you want is not listed here, check the PI index:

This document lists every PI issued and includes details of those which have been cancelled, updated or replaced by a policy framework. The index also includes the most up-to-date contact details for the owner of each PI.

A PI remains in force until it is formally cancelled, even if the document has passed its expiry date.

Some PIs are not published here because they are restricted or sensitive. HR and other staff-related PIs are not published here but are available on your departmental intranet.

If you have any questions about the contents on this page or would like an electronic copy of a cancelled policy, please email [email protected].
