Amendment PV-7 is looking at every stage in the criminal process. We know that the Canadian victims bill of rights is attempting to ensure that victims feel secure and have an enhanced sense of safety and security throughout the process. They may be encountering the person who victimized them.
The addition in PV-7 that I've made is at page 4, line 21 and basically inserts the words “including parole hearings”.
This was a recommendation directly from the testimony of the Ombudsman for Victims of Crime.
