Description:
The probation data included in this dataset is sourced from National Delius (nDelius). nDelius is used for the management of offenders on Probation, or in the community. A service user (offender) is referred to nDelius by a court and an event is created in nDelius. Broadly, events are either a sentence or pre-sentence. An event can only ever have one sentence outcome (disposal). One court case can receive multiple sentences/disposals so more than one event may run at the same time.
A service user will receive one offender_id per court case however duplicates can happen by mistake. The variable estimated_offender_id uses a process of data deduplication to eliminate these duplicates and group them under the same service user cluster.
The accuracy of the source data is dependent on the quality assurance processes and local recording practices intrinsic to the source data systems used by HMPPS staff (nDelius).

Accessibility
Access
Access Service:
The SAIL Databank is powered by the UK Secure e-Research Platform (UKSeRP).
Following approval through safeguard processes, access to project-specific data
within the secure environment is permitted using two-factor authentication.
Access for approved purposes and projects is to accredited researchers through
the ONS Secure Research Service (SRS). The application form is available on
gov.uk and governed by MoJ and HMCTS. Please see the application form guidance
and the Data First user guide for more information on the process.
Access Request Cost:
Data provision is free from SAIL. Overall project costing depends on the number
of people that require access to the SAIL Gateway, the activities that SAIL
needs to complete (e.g. loading non-standard datasets), data refreshes,
analytical work required, disclosure control process, and special case
technological requirements.
