| AdminHistory | AFter the British Psychological Society responsed to two Royal College of Psychiatrists reports "Secure Facilities for Psychiatric Patients" (1980) and"The Future of Special Hospitals" 1983 - it was felt that the psychology profession should produce its own statement rather than reponding to other documents. In 1985 Tony Black proposed a BPS Division of Clinical Psychology rworking party on clinical psychology services to offenders and the behaviourally disordered. After a meeting at a BPS onference in 1985 a working party on Psychological Services for Offending and Abnormal Behaviours was formed. It met during 1985 and 1987 and then between 1989 and 1990. After discussions in 1991 a draft report "Report of a Working Party of the Society on Clinical Psychology Services for Offenders and Anti Social Behaviour Problemswas sent to the Professional Affairs Board in 1992. It was initially proposed to issue a synopsis under the title "Dangerous Behaviour" later ameded to "AntiSocial Behaviour" as a stand alone document. The full report entitled Psychology and Anti-Social Behaviour was launched on 5 May 1993 |
