231 Pre-sentence outcome plan

(1) Any agreement made by a child in a pre-sentence group conference must be recorded in a pre‑sentence outcome plan.

(2) The objects of a pre-sentence outcome plan are to—

(a) assist the child to take responsibility and make reparation for the child's actions; and

(b) support the child's positive development; and

(c) reduce the likelihood of the child reoffending.

(3) An agreement recorded in the pre-sentence outcome plan must be—

(a) fair; and

(b) measurable; and

(c) reasonably able to be carried out by the child, having regard to the child's age, maturity and individual circumstances; and

(d) no more punitive than the sentence that could be imposed on the child in respect of the offence of which the child has been found guilty.
