§ Hilary Benn[holding answer 9 December 2002]: The number of reparation orders, final warnings, action plan orders, parenting orders and court ordered secure remands are set out in the tables. The Youth Justice Board has provided the data from April 2000 onwards from returns provided by Youth Offending Teams.
As there is no intervention called a preventing order, we have assumed that the information requested is for parenting orders.
