On 1st April 1999 NPS Gwent Area set up a Public Protection Unit to work closely with Gwent Police to manage
the Sex Offender Register and to supervise all Sex Offenders and Dangerous Offenders and with Gwent Police
nominating a specific Sex Offender Liaison Officer for each Police Division.
The additional expenditure is for the time spent in preparation of the Annual Report and for two extra police
officers recruited for the financial year 2001 – 2002 to manage the increasing workload monitoring the risk of Sex
Offenders and Potentially Dangerous Offenders.
