Another 1,500 dangerous criminals being monitored in the community were sent back to prison for breaking the terms of their release from jail or breaching an order which bars sex offenders from a range of activities.

Official figures released today also show that the number of people on the sex offender register rose by just under 1,000 to reach 32,000 last year.

But a row broke out after it emerged that the Ministry of Justice had changed the way the figures are compiled and published.

The move makes it impossible to compare the total number of violent and dangerous offenders supervised in 2008-9 with numbers for previous years.

It comes amid growing concern about the number of murders by convicted criminals under probation.

The 24-year-old killer of John Monckton, who was killed at his home in Chelsea almost four years ago, was on parole when he was knifed in November 2004. Damien Hanson was under a so-called "multi-agency public protection arrangement" (Mappa), made up of police, probation, prison and other agencies, in each of the 42 probation areas of England and Wales.
