If I can just point this out, the individuals who would go to a 720 treatment program would be individuals who are not eligible for the drug treatment court program. So individuals under the 720 approach would be individuals who possibly used a weapon to commit the offence or may have used violence to commit the offence. And the thinking here is that while those types of individuals would benefit from a treatment program, the nature of their offence was such that it still warranted at least a minimum penalty.
Under the 720 approach, once an individual has successfully completed the program, the court would have to impose the minimum, but would not necessarily impose more than the minimum. Depending on the circumstances, individuals who are open to the 720 approach could get considerably more than the minimum. It depends on the severity of the violence or the use of a weapon, and so on. It was felt that allowing the court to impose the minimum was the least we could do in light of the fact that these types of offences were of a much more serious nature than the type of offender who went into the drug treatment court program. And the judge, in those cases where an individual has successfully completed that approach or that program, could impose a lesser sentence--i.e. perhaps just the minimum--if an individual has successfully completed the 720 treatment program.
