Lin Hinnigan, YJB Chief Executive, said:

Doncaster Youth Offending Service is a priority for the YJB’s support and we take very seriously the report’s concerns about the poor effectiveness of governance and partnerships found there. We will work closely with the service to ensure that measurable improvements are made. We will also continue to offer ongoing assistance through our role to assess, support and challenge youth offending team performance.
