Police and probation will also work to ensure that Crown counsel has the information they need to make informed decisions about charge assessments and prosecutions,” indicates information provided by the provincial public safety and solicitor general ministry.
“We are pulling out all the stops to make sure British Columbians feel safe,” said public safety and solicitor general Mike Farnworth. “Our government made a commitment to tackle the complex issue of repeat violent offending, and we’re backing that promise with concrete action.
