Very good.
I know from my experience in practising criminal law in Nova Scotia that taking into account mental disorders was almost always a practice in a pre-sentence report. I would say that, in many ways, this is really just standardizing good practice to ensure that the court has a complete picture of the circumstances of the offender who is before the court at sentencing.
Would you agree with that, and do you think it's important to ensure that probation officers are directed to turn their minds to any mental disorder that might exist in order to give the court the complete picture on sentencing?
