Section 7
Disposition versions
7. At the request of the courts, probation officers shall prepare pre-sentencing reports on convicted offenders so as to assess the possibility of their reintegration into the community.
Probation officers shall perform various assessment and intervention activities in relation to persons entrusted to the correctional services, support them through their reintegration process and, where necessary, refer them to the relevant community-based resources. If probation officers exercise those functions in relation to persons in respect of whom a verdict of not criminally responsible by reason of mental disorder or of unfit to stand trial has been rendered, the probation officers are then designated as liaison officers.
