The organisation issued an apology last month following criticism from academics and campaigners concerned that key research, much of it commissioned several years ago, was not seeing the light of day.
Details released by the YJB to CYP Now reveal that, since the beginning of July this year, five research reports, including one dating back to 2005, have been published.
