I think that's the crux of the whole issue. Under the four studies that were done, this has been brought to the attention of governments for a while now. I believe the intent of this bill is to reallocate the funds. The only way it seems possible is to make it mandatory and double the fine surcharge.
In response to your first question, it would be totally fine with our organization if the offender could not pay but was able to possibly do community service or whatever. You're quite right. There isn't any amount of money that can repair the pain and damage that we've gone through. However, what the money is used for is not specifically to hand victims money; it is for victim services, so that victims do have a place to go.
Does that answer your question?
