English to Portuguese Law/Patents Law (general) Police work

Following a Youth Caution, the police have a statutory duty to refer the
young offender to the youth offending team (YOT). For a second or
subsequent Youth Caution, or where a young person has previously
received a Youth Conditional Caution, the YOT has a statutory duty to
carry out an assessment of the young offender and consider putting in
place an intervention programme aimed at preventing re-offending. The
YOT may carry out an assessment and offer a rehabilitation programme
for a youth who has never received a Youth Caution or Youth
Conditional Caution at their discretion.
