I don't think so necessarily. I think the 2021 report is off the back of the 2017 review but I could be wrong.

I am surprised there is little to no outrage on here regards the discrimination towards non-ethnic homosexual men which is about to be legislated.

I don't play when you get spikey.Why are you concentrating on homosexual men in particular. Aren't all non-ethnic men affected, whether they are heterosexual or homosexual. Unless I have got the guidance wrong

3. Pre-sentence reports (PSRs)
Requesting a PSR
When considering a community or custodial sentence, the court must request and consider a pre-sentence report (PSR) before forming an opinion of the sentence, unless it considers that it is unnecessary (section 30 of the Sentencing Code). A pre-sentence report may also be requested by a defence legal representative as part of the before-plea protocol.

which guide magistrates and judges, on sentencing.
Its two-tier justice.
There is an assumption that BAME men get harsher sentences than White Men. The solution is not to investigate why (e.g. type of crime, violence, organised etc). But to find a way to give lower sentences. Enter the pre-sentence report. Job done, box ticked.
Female or BAME.
Get a report.
Male and White
No report.

Not guide, inform of all of the circumstances, which judges can ignore if they wish.
No it isn't.
Nonsense.
Not true.

Your alternative opinion is noted.
You cannot possibly make an argument that people should get different rights and procedures, based on their ethnicity and religion in the criminal justice process. its bonkers.
If you are White British male, you are more likely to go to prison than those who are given special treatment.
Experts agree

Does a pre sentencing report take into consideration any past offences the guilty party has been convicted of?

I think so:
'Previous convictions
The existence of one or more relevant previous convictions should not generally be used as the sole basis to justify the case passing the custody threshold.
Numerous and frequent previous convictions might indicate an underlying problem (for example, an addiction or experience of domestic abuse) that could be addressed more effectively through a community order with relevant requirements and will not necessarily indicate that a custodial sentence is necessary, even where a custodial sentence has previously been imposed. This may be particularly true for young adults (aged typically 18-25).'
