Residency in juvenile justice; youth, 2000-2012

This table provides information on young people residing in a youth judicial system. These facilities are intended for underage young people. In some cases, a higher age is also possible. Young people aged 18 and older are therefore included in the total inflow. This represents less than 5 % of young people each year. Until 2007, both young people with civil and criminal measures were living in a youth judicial system. As of 2008, only young people with criminal measures will be placed in a judicial establishment. Responsibility for the reception and treatment of young people with a civil law measure has been transferred by the Ministry of Security and Justice to the Ministry of Health Welfare and Sport (vws). For this table, this means that as of 2008, no data will be available on young people with a civil measure. No more percentages are presented. In order to show how young people in the Netherlands are doing, the National Youth Monitor describes more than 70 topics in addition to this topic. The topics are called indicators.
