Serious violent criminals and registered sex offenders are subject to Mappa (Multi-Agency Public Protection Arrangements) to ensure their risk to the public is monitored once they are released from prison.
Mr Russell said:"Some areas interpret the criteria differently and aren't referring enough cases for formal, multi-agency management. Essentially, they are underused: for cases managed at the lower level one, contact is not sufficient, reviewing is too often unsatisfactory."
The overall Mappa caseload is up 70% since 2011 but the proportion of offenders subject to the highest level of monitoring, which requires meetings with senior managers, is less than 2%.
