Abstract

Abstract: Mike Nellis's recent article, 'Probation values for the 1990s' (Nellis 1995) is considered to be flawed in that the articulation of anti‐custodialism, restorative justice and community safety locates the probation service as the beneficiary from the rejection of the humanitarian values which underpin probation practice. This response to Mike Nellis suggests that it is those humanitarian values which ensure 'clients' are perceived and treated as 'ends' rather than as a 'means' of transforming the probation service into an agent of penal reform.
