New system to keep tabs on dangerous criminals

Saturday 23rd July 2011, 2:56PM BST.

STATES departments will keep tabs on dangerous criminals and potential offenders under a new policy to protect the public and victims.

Registered sex offenders, violent criminals sentenced to a year or more in prison, and other dangerous offenders or potential offenders will all be tracked by the new system.

Under the Jersey Multi Agency Public Protection Arrangements (JMAPPA) policy, departments will share information about the criminals and offenders to make sure that the risk of further crime is reduced as far as possible.

    Are we saying that this is within Jersey(?) or Worldwide(?)

    As yet again we have offenders who arrive in the Island (wanted in other domains) work, then commit a violent crime (and then stay out of prison)

    But hey we have Tax Laws with the rest of the world, far more important(!!)
