The Penal Policy Review Group (PPRG) was established in 2012 to conduct a wide-ranging strategic review of penal policy. Their report, Strategic Review of Penal Policy, recommended that an implementation and oversight mechanism should be established to report on the progress of the PPRG’s recommendations stemming from the report. As a result, the Implementation Oversight Group was established in early 2015. The Group’s primary function is to report to the Minister every six months regarding the implementation status of the recommendations of the PPRG.

Originally, 43 recommendations were made by the PPRG, but some of these have been recognised to have multiple elements. For the purposes of the sixth report, the Implementation Oversight Group identified a total of 55 areas in which progress could be assessed.
