Subject: Official Information request - Reducing Reoffending Through
Employment -- presentation by Elizabeth Manchee

 

Dear Department of Corrections,

 

I saw that Elizabeth Manchee, National Manager Employer Partnerships, gave
a presentation about reoffending and employment. You can see the
presentation pdf here:
[3]https://www.workwise.org.nz/assets/files...

 

In the presentation, she claims that "60% of prisoners are unemployed
before they go to prison". I am interested in the data that was used to
support this claim.

 

Please provide me with the resources used to make this claim.

 

If such data exists, please provide me with the unemployment rate of
prisoners prior to incarceration, broken down by year since records began.

 

Thank you for your unfailing assistance.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Ti Lamusse
