The Offender Population Report (formerly known as the Offender Volumes Report) presents information about the offender population managed by the Department and helps Corrections plan and develop policies relating to offender management and rehabilitation.
The report analyses offender volume patterns by age, gender, ethnicity, offence group and sentence type, and how these have changed over the last few decades.
The Offender Population Report replaces the biennial prison census that was conducted from 1987-2003.
