ABORIGINAL youth in NSW are nearly 26 times more likely to be jailed than their non-indigenous peers, a report has found.

The Australian Institute of Criminology report says that while 4.4 per cent of the state's youth are indigenous, Aboriginal inmates make up 54 per cent of the people in juvenile detention.

Indigenous incarceration rates for juveniles and rates overall continued to rise in 2006-2007, the most recent year for which figures are available. Nationwide, the figure is worse, with indigenous juvenile incarceration now 28 times the non-indigenous rate.

About a quarter of adult prisoners around Australia are indigenous, meaning indigenous children are twice as likely as indigenous adults to be jailed.

Over-representation rates had been falling for much of the past 15 years but reached a new national high in 2007 when 432 of the nation's 742 juvenile prisoners were indigenous.

Overall, the rate of young offenders sentenced to detention has halved since the early 1980s and only 5 per cent of all those found guilty in children's courts nationwide were sentenced to juvenile jail.
