Put that the Youth Justice System was now in "crisis", and was the Prime Minister still confident in John Reid, the PMOS said that he thought it was almost a record in terms of asking that question, but yes, the Prime Minister did still have confidence in John Reid. In terms of Youth Justice, the PMOS said that it needed to be put in perspective. Custody was a last resort for under 18s, and of the 190,000 young people dealt with by the police in court each year, only 4% received a custodial sentence.
