Collection and usage attributes | |
Guide for use: | Data elements in this cluster assist in describing the types of supervision young people under the youth justice system experience. For example, the information provided in the order file aids in analysing how many youth justice orders were: • active during the year • had by a young person under supervision (on average) • for community-based supervision • for detention • sentenced • unsentenced. The person identifier in the order file cluster is used to link with the client file cluster, in order to connect information on the characteristics of young people with the types of orders they experienced. The order end reason data elements in this file provides information on why an order ended, including reasons such as completed, revoked, cancelled and stayed pending appeal. This aids in describing how a young person exited a period of supervision. The postcode item in this file enables analyses of the remoteness and socioeconomic status of the areas in which young people lived before they entered youth justice supervision. The order file is also used to create episodes of community-based supervision (in combination with the detention file), based on the order start and end dates (and detention start and end dates). |
