The latest readily available information relates to persons convicted within two year of discharge from prison department establishments in 1980 and is published in tables 8(b) and 8(e) of "Prison Statistics, England and Wales, 1983" (Cmnd. 9363). Similar information for persons discharged in 1981 will be published soon in the volume for 1984.
