Sentencing BillContribution
Both a community order and a suspended sentence order may have requirements attached. These can include a curfew, unpaid work, drug treatment and electronic monitoring. These requirements have the intention of punishing the offender, providing reparation and addressing any criminogenic or rehabilitative needs which may otherwise increase the likelihood of their reoffending. Again, nothing in the Bill changes that.
