With reprimands these were introduced under the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 to replace police cautions for young people between 10 and 17. They are the second stage of the new "two strikes and you are out" laws. A second offence will result in a warning, (a third offence, no matter how minor, leads to a criminal charge and an appearance in court). Warnings are more serious than reprimands and mean the young person is referred to the Youth Offending Team. The YOT has 10 days to conduct an assessment, it will visit the offender, their family and often the victim and decide if the young person is likely to engage with a rehabilitation programme. It can consider the nature and content of the rehabilitation programme and explore with the victim and offender the possibility of setting up a restorative intervention. A final warning as part of a RJ process must take place within 28 days.
