(2) During 2004/2005, a total of 3,195 individuals had their orders breached. This figure is not a subset of the number given under question 1 as many orders commenced during 2004/2005 would still be current: they may eventually be completed successfully or breached. (3) Of those persons who had their orders breached during 2004/2005, a total of 1,235 individuals were received in the prison system after their breach date. This includes sentenced as well as remand prisoners and prisoners received in the prison system for the first time as well as those who had been in prison previously.
