Vol. 818 No. 3

Restorative Justice (Reparation of Victims) Bill 2013: First Stage

I move:

That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to introduce a requirement for offenders to make reparation for injury suffered by victims or damage caused to property as a direct result of the commission by the offender of a criminal offence; to provide for recognition to be afforded to voluntary pre-trial reparation at sentencing; to provide for post-conviction reparation; to provide for deductions to be made from a person's income or social welfare payment if required; to provide for recognition to be afforded to offenders who assist in the recovery of stolen goods and to provide for related matters.

Is the Bill opposed?

Question put and agreed to.

Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage must, under Standing Orders, be taken in Private Members' time.

I move: "That the Bill be taken in Private Members' time."

Question put and agreed to.
