What happens if there isn’t local provision to deliver a YRO requirement?
As part of their proposal to court in their pre-sentence report, the YOT will indicate the extent to which a particular requirement can be delivered at a local level. It is hoped the courts will take this advice on board and impose an appropriate sentence. Some of the YRO requirements can be imposed only following consultation with YOTs and, where relevant, the local authority with responsibility for contributing to the delivery of the requirement (e.g. an Education Requirement).
