YDAC was very similar to circle sentencing in that it was targeted toward serious offenders and could spare them from a custodial sentence. Western Australia always had a higher incarceration rate of Aboriginal people compared to the rest of Australia, and rates have nearly doubled between 1990 and 2010.

Acts intended to cause injury (22% or 622 prisoners); Sexual assault and related offences (14% or 406 prisoners); Offences against justice (12% or 354 prisoners); and, Illicit drug offences (12% or 330 prisoners).

(Table 1). The Northern Territory continued to have the highest imprisonment rate of all states and territories at 914 persons per 100,000 adult population. Victoria and Queensland are the only states where a person can be arrested for being drunk in public. No wonder that all 14 of Western Australia’s prisons are overcrowded. (Table 26). Median time on remand for unsentenced prisoners was 3.1 months. NSW Department of Aboriginal Affairs The Service needs to make dramatic changes to reduce readmissions and returns to custody, better prepare Indigenous offenders to meet earliest parole eligibility dates and more safely return Indigenous offenders to their home communities.

Justice Reinvestment Australia newsletter, 16/12/2013 Because racial disparity data is often frustratingly hard to locate, we’ve compiled the key data available into a series of charts, arranged into five slideshows focused on policing, juvenile justice, jails and pretrial detention, prisons and sentencing, and reentry. As you can see in the chart showing prison incarceration rates by sex and race/ethnicity, BJS does sometimes offer this level of detail. 'Yes, we jail too many Indigenous Australians – but what happens next is worse', The Guardian Australia, 21/2/2017 (Table 14), Since 30 June 2018, the male imprisonment rate increased by 3% to 298 prisoners per 100,000 male adult population, while the female rate increased by less than one per cent to 22 prisoners per 100,000 female adult population. In these charts (and in most of our publications), we use the terminology of the original data sources. (Table 32), The median aggregate sentence length for sentenced prisoners was 1.7 years, which was the lowest of all states and territories. (Table 26), The number of prisoners in Victoria was 8,101, an increase of 6% (435 prisoners) from 2018. (Table 14), Overseas-born prisoners accounted for 4% of the Northern Territory adult prisoner population. (Table 15), Overseas born prisoners accounted for 24% of the Victorian prisoner population. A: The question of how accurately race and ethnicity data reflect justice-involved populations goes beyond inconsistent labels. The rates of incarceration tell of gruesome disparity: First Nations people being gaoled at 16 times the rate of the rest of the nation’s peoples. No. [25] There would be no control if all monies taken from custodial projects were diverted to justice reinvestment schemes. Wilcannia is bigger, more remote and has more Aboriginal inhabitants than Menindee. And in the case of criminal justice data, race and ethnicity are not always self-reported (which would be ideal). (Table 26), The number of adult prisoners in the Northern Territory was 1,731, a decrease of 2% (27 prisoners) from 2018.
