This same approach &#8211; used by the YJB for the last 15 years &#8211; has been key to our success in reducing the numbers of young people in custody, and of first time entrants into the youth justice system, to their lowest ever levels.<\/p>\n<p class=\"last-child\">We will be considering carefully where, and how, the well-informed recommendations that have been made could also apply to the care of children and young people in custody.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2 id=\"background\">Background<\/h2>\n<p>Click to read more about the <a rel=\"external\" href=\"http:\/\/iapdeathsincustody.independent.gov.uk\/harris-review\/\">Harris Review<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"contact postal-address\" id=\"contact_1779\">\n<div class=\"content\">\n<h3>Youth Justice Board media enquiries<\/h3>\n<div class=\"vcard contact-inner\">\n<p class=\"adr\">\n<span class=\"fn\">Youth Justice Board press office<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"street-address\">102 Petty France<br \/>\n<br \/>\nLondon<br \/>\n<br \/>\nSW1H 9AJ<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"email-url-number\">\n<p class=\"email\">\n              <span class=\"type\">Email<\/span><br \/>\n              <a class=\"email\" href=\"mailto:Media1@yjb.gsi.gov.uk\">Media1@yjb.gsi.gov.uk<\/a>\n            <\/p>\n<p class=\"tel\">\n              <span class=\"type\">Press office<\/span><br \/>\n              020 3334 5260\n            <\/p>\n<p class=\"tel\">\n              <span class=\"type\">For out-of-hours please contact the following<\/span><br \/>\n              07990 777309\n            <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An independent review into self-inflicted deaths in National Offender Management Service (NOMS) custody of 18-24 year olds is published today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58648"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=58648"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58648\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=58648"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=58648"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=58648"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
