In 2003, the British government published a strategy/consultation document on restorative justice, and it worked with the Restorative Justice Consortium to continue this consultation process. Here Alex Crow and Liz Nelson report on the status of the British government’s exploration of and strategy for restorative justice. Particular developments include, among other items, the following: convening of a group to develop policy on training and accreditation for restorative practitioners; new restorative justice pilot projects; upcoming publication of guidance for local criminal justice agencies in developing restorative justice; and consultation on the use of restorative justice in cases of domestic violence.
