(b) Assaults in custody are reported annually in the Report of Government Services (ROGS) report. The 2011-12 ROGS data states 0.8 assaults on correctional officers per 100 detainees in the ACT. The 2012-13 ROGS data states that there were zero assaults on correctional officers per 100 detainees in the ACT. This equates to two assaults in the timeframe requested.

ROGS defines ‘assaults in custody’ as the number of victims of acts of physical violence committed by a prisoner that resulted in physical injuries reported over the year, divided by the annual daily average prisoner/detainee population, multiplied by 100 (to give the rate per 100 prisoners or 100 detainees). Rates are reported separately for assaults against another prisoner/detainee and assaults against a member of staff.

The below data is provided using the ROGS reporting rules.

Please note that ACT Corrective Services has defined ‘behavioural breaches’ as ‘disciplinary breaches’ as defined in the Corrections Management Act 2007.
