Chief Constable optimistic after period of change
A lack of funding to tackle youth offending restricted the Isle of Man Constabulary's ability to deal with the issue over the last year.

During the 2018-19 period, the Youth Justice Team underwent significant change, becoming the Police Early Action Team.
One person was referred to the service 28 times, and Chief Constable Roberts admits there was a risk of people slipping through the net due to a lack of resources:
