Veterans (Non-custodial Sentences) Bill
[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to
This bill proposes giving special consideration to exmilitary personnel (veterans) when they're sentenced for crimes, but only when the court decides not to send them to prison. It aims to help veterans who've served their country but have since committed offences, by recognizing their service when deciding their punishment.
Presented by Owen Thompson.
