	Sentencing Trends No 21 - February 2001
		The NSW Department of Corrective Services’s decision to classify an offender to a particular correctional facility depends on a number of factors; for example, the offender’s security classification and legal status (sentenced or unsentenced), the offence that was committed, and the level of protection required.
		Correctional staff may also place an offender into protection at any other time if, as a result of any incident(s), the offender is at risk of injury from other inmates.
		Correctional authorities, echoing the principles of punishment and sentencing, express their primary goal in their mission statement as being the protection of the community by the secure containment and management of offenders in a safe and humane environment.

		There are Anglican chaplains in regional correctional centres such as Grafton, Cessnock, Goulburn and Junee and, although these are appointed by the Diocese in which they are serving, Anglicare's chaplains share fellowship with them periodically at Chaplains' Conferences.

		Anglicare is most interested in assisting in any developmental work aimed at finding new approaches to these glaring areas of need and to assist in the training, pastoral support and supervision of any parish clergy who could include hospital or prison ministry as part of their normal ministerial duty.
