Statistics on 12 month or under sentences

We're waiting for Eilidh Ross to read a recent response and update the status.

Dear Scottish Prison Service,

Under the Freedom of Information Act, I request the following information about sentences of 12 months or under:

How many individuals were sentenced to 12 months or under in custody in Scotland in the years 2019 and 2020?
How many prisoners are currently serving a sentence of 12 months or under in a Scottish prison?
Under what sort of circumstances would a judge or sheriff go against the presumption against imposing custodial sentences of under 12 months and award such a sentence?

Yours faithfully,

Eilidh Ross
