This paper contrasts the official policy underlying attendance centres with the practice of one such centre.
Abstract
Two issues in particular are discussed: the objectives of the centre (noting particularly the views of the staff and the boys) and the apparent place of attendance centres in the tariff. Certain divergences are highlighted and their implications discussed in the light of the recent Criminal Justice Act. (Author abstract)
