It focuses on transfers and information exchange, on those offenders who move for short periods, or who move at the end of sentence or sanction. It also presents up to date data for probation staff and draws on good practice to offer practical tools for practitioners to assess potential mobility, and to assist in comprehensive and speedy information exchange. Broader areas of improvement for the wider EU are also identified.Item Metadata only Multi agency approaches to effective risk management in the community in England and Wales.(Wiley-Blackwell, 2013) Kemshall, Hazel, 1958-; Hilder, SarahThis chapter aims to summarize the current issues associated with multi agency approaches that are in use to manage high risk offenders in the community in England and Wales. It will focus on important recent developments since 2007, following the most current evaluation of MAPPA by Wood and Kemshall (2007). In particular it will discuss the improved standards for risk management, the increased emphasis on engaging high risk offenders in risk management plans, responding to issues of diversity, and important issues for the future development of MAPPA such as the greater inclusion of third sector agencies in the supervision of offenders since 2007.

The Guidance will be relevant to practitioners who work with and supervise serious violent or sexual offenders whether in the community or in custodial settings (including Probation and prison settings and other custodial settings such as designated psychiatric units). It will also be relevant to service managers at both local and national levels and to criminal justice policy-makers and others with responsibility for the design of services. These materials could also provide the basis of information presentations and training events.Item Open Access Protect II, Capacity Building in Risk Assessment and Safety Management for Victims at a High risk of Harm from domestic violence(WAVE, Women Against Violence Europe Network, 2012-05) Hilder, Sarah; Kemshall, Hazel, 1958-; Rosemann, Ute; Logar, Rosa; Vargova, Branislava Marvanova; Fisher, HannahItem Metadata only Public disclosure: Sex offenders' perceptions of the pilot scheme in England. Compliance, legitimacy and living a “Good Life”(Routledge, 2012) Kemshall, Hazel, 1958-; Dominey, Jane; Hilder, SarahIn June 2007, the Government published the ‘Review of the Protection of Children from Sex Offenders’ (Home Office 2007). The Review considered the way in which the risks presented by registered child sex offenders(RSOs) in the community are managed, including the amount of information about child sex offenders that is disclosed to the public. The review set out 20 actions to strengthen efforts to keep children safe.This article presents the key findings in respect of RSO perceptions, potential (and where possible actual) reactions to the pilot disclosure scheme.Item Open Access Serious Offending by Mobile European Criminals (SOMEC). Mapping Report on Existing EU Information Exchange Systems.(European Union and Confederation of European Probation, 2014) Hilder, Sarah; Kemshall, Hazel, 1958-The SOMEC project (Serious Offending by Mobile European Criminals) seeks to assess the scale of the harm posed to the European Union (EU) community by serious sexual or violent offenders who travel across EU borders. The project has three main aims: To assess the threat posed to European citizens when serious violent or sexual offenders travel between EU Member States. To identify the methods and effectiveness of mechanisms used by EU Member States in the management of serious violent or sexual offenders travelling across borders. To explore critical success factors and provide recommendations to facilitate the improved exchange of information for the prevention of crime. This report principally addresses aim 2 and is complemented by a field work report.Item Metadata only Serious Offending by Mobile European Criminals (SOMEC) Information Exchanges, Monitoring and Management - A Field Work Study of Current Responses by Member States(Home Office & De Montfort University, 2015-01-21) Kemshall, Hazel, 1958-; Hilder, Sarah; Kelly, Gill; Wilkinson, BernadetteSOMEC was a two-year project running from January 2013 to January 2015 investigating current processes for information exchange and procedures to manage the harm posed by serious violent or sexual offenders travelling across the European Union. De Montfort University were the research lead in partnership with Law Enforcement and Offender Management Agencies across the UK, Latvia, The Netherlands and Catalonia, SpainItem Open Access Serious Offending by Mobile European Criminals: Comparative field work report.(European Union and confederation of European Probation, 2015) Kemshall, Hazel, 1958-; Hilder, Sarah; Kelly, Gill; Wilkinson, Bernadette; Westwood, SueA number of tragic examples have exposed weaknesses within the European Union (EU) where a serious violent or sexual offender has travelled to one Member State from another without any public safety organisation within the receiving Member State being made aware of the harm they may pose.1 Often only once a further criminal act has occurred have checks been made, revealing antecedents and an indication of the previously known concerns. Serious violent or sexual offenders are therefore able to integrate into communities across the EU free from any management, supervision or surveillance, which may lead to an increase in the risk to public safety. Whilst significant strides have been made in EU community law enforcement cooperation to address issues of organised crime, human trafficking, child exploitation, terrorism and football hooliganism, the “common interest” of protecting EU citizens from the single transient serious violent or sexual offender has not been so apparent.Item Open Access Serious Violent or Sexual Offenders Travelling Across EU Borders. Ideological and Ethical Challenges of Information Exchange.(Sage, 2016-12-19) Hilder, Sarah; Kemshall, Hazel, 1958-The increase in travel opportunities coupled with open borders across much of the European Union has resulted in increased capacity for serious violent or sexual offenders to travel or migrate to other Member States within the EU. In some instances this results in (ex)offenders living and working in Member States with less monitoring, regulation or supervision than they would experience in their home Member State; and in some cases without any tracking or information exchange about their known criminality. In 2013 an EU funded project reviewed current information exchange systems within the EU, and the challenges and issues faced by law enforcement and probation service personnel when seeking to work collaboratively with other EU Member States to manage the risk posed by this small number of high risk offenders. This article reviews the key issues from that research, and most notably the differences in perceptions of privacy, data protection restrictions on information exchange, rights to free movement post sentence, and a range of legal and ethical constraints upon the choices and actions of law enforcement and probation personnel. Underlying ideological and philosophical differences, particularly across Probation practice, can be discerned focused on the relative weight that risk, desistance or rehabilitation should play in response to these offenders. This article examines the implications of these differences for the effective management of serious violent or sexual offenders who are mobile across the EU community.Item Embargo Working with Perpetrators of Domestic Violence and Abuse: The Potential for Change.(Palgrave MacMillan, 2016-07) Hilder, Sarah; Caroline FreemanThis chapter charts the history of DVA perpetrator programmes in the UK. It examines various typologies and theoretical models which have impacted to date on interventions with those committing acts of abuse and explores the potential of desistance and strengths based frameworks. The reluctance and lack of confidence of the DV sector to engage in a holistic approach to working with perpetrators is also examined
