Notes: Figures include only those prisoners who are liberated into the community. This excludes prisoners who are deceased, deported, in a hospital, transferred cross border, repatriated, and liberated on appeal or to immigration authorities. If a prisoner is liberated more than once during the year, they will be counted more than once. Further breakdowns for adults and young offenders are published on the web in Tables 7a-b.
