This plan reflects changes to the YJB\u2019s functions which were effective from 1 September 2017.<\/p>\n<p>The plan includes some of the achievements and challenges for the youth justice system. Achievements include the substantial fall in the number of children in the youth justice system. Challenges include reducing reoffending rates, the disproportionately high number of children from black and some ethnic minority backgrounds and looked-after children.<\/p>\n<p>The plan sets out what the YJB is doing in 2017-18 which includes a list of business activities.
