The Youth Justice Conferencing Directorate works directly and collaboratively with NSW Police Youth Liaison Officers, the Police Youth Issues Sponsor and their Youth Programs Unit in fulfilling the department’s joint and several responsibilities for the diversion from court and custody of eligible young people under the Young Offenders Act 1997.
The department has been working jointly with NSW Police covering the transfer of a number of operational responsibilities from Police to DJJ. The agreement covers cooperative arrangements with Police including an agreement to the principles relating to the detention of juveniles by police, the use of police resources during critical incidents/industrial disputes and for the exchange of intelligence information.
