Diagrama on Seven's Spotlight

Here is a summary of the key points from the transcript, which appears to be from a TV show discussing a youth justice model used in Spain:

• The show suggests that a potential solution to youth justice issues investigated by a royal commission in Australia has been overlooked by politicians.
• The hosts visited youth detention centers in Spain which claim to have an 82% community reintegration rate for offenders, including serious and violent offenders. This contrasts with Australia where only 1 in 20 are successfully reintegrated.
• Key differences in the Spanish model include having more educators than security staff (90% educators, 10% security), focusing on rehabilitation and education in a broad sense (teaching respect and building relationships, not just schooling), and taking time to change the system.
• The Spanish model is said to cost only a third as much as the Australian system at $700 per offender per day.
• The show argues that while adopting this model would require determination, realigned priorities and significant funding from risk-averse politicians, there would be a cost benefit to society in reducing crime and recidivism.
• An interviewee argues it is a "win-win" that the government should seriously consider - rehabilitating youth while reducing costs to taxpayers.
