FTA Warrants' Notification Timeliness

The time period for notification measures the time that elapses between when an FTA (Failure To Appear) warrant is issued by the court (not the time it is signed) and when it is received by the police.
Notification target for all areas is 90% within one working day and 100% within three working days.
