1. Figures for previous cohorts may differ from previously published figures as updated information is fed into the Scottish Offenders Index.
2. The non-court disposals dataset is independent of the dataset on court convictions.
3. Includes any non-court disposal within one year of receiving a COPFS disposal, and therefore could include police disposals as well as COPFS disposals.
4. The percentage of individuals receiving a non-court disposal within a year of receiving a COPFS disposal.
