Committee of Supply 2024 debate, Day 6: Hazel Poa on restorative justice
Restorative justice seeks to restore victims, perpetrators and families by addressing the harm caused by violence, seeking accountability and support to foster healing. Is the restorative justice process currently adopted in counselling sessions involving cases of spousal violence? If not, would the Social and Family Development Minister consider offering this as an option? NCMP Hazel Poa raised this question in Parliament on Wednesday (Mar 6).
