What is the Triage system (Triage)?

Updated by MSF

The Triage system aims to facilitate early identification and diversion of suitable youth offenders committing minor offences, from the court system and to receive support. At the point of arrest, Investigating Police Officers will refer suitable youths and their parents to undergo a Triage interview by an ISP worker. The ISP social worker will submit a social assessment report to the Attorney-General’s Chambers (AGC) through the Police. Depending on the outcome, the offender may be placed on a pre-court diversionary programme, be administered a police warning, or be charged in Court.
