Paper Summary:
This paper will give a brief history of the YOA and give special attention to the Ontario Crime Control Commission (OCCC), which has recently made its own report on youth crime. The main thesis of this paper will be that the Commission's recommendations are prudent, but that they come up short in dealing with the social causes of juvenile criminality. The Commission should have spent more time and energy on considering why young people become offenders in the first place. Preventative measures are ultimately much more effective than state-sanctioned retribution.More papers on The Young Offenders Act:
