The Correctional Service - StatRes

The Correctional Services execute penal sentences that have been imposed and make remand places available to the police. The category consists of the Prison and Probation Central Administration (KSF), six Regional Administrations, prisons and probation offices, two centres for drug programmes with overriding power of the courts, the Correctional Services of Norway Staff Academy (KRUS) and the Correctional Services’ IT Centre (KITT).

The indicator-set for the Correctional Service’s area in StatRes includes statistics from the Prison and Probation Central Administration and from Statistics Norway. The costs and contracted man-years statistics have been specially developed by Statistics Norway for publishing in StatRes (Further explanations can be found in “About the statistics”).
