Community Remedy

Community remedy refers to a list of options that police officers can use to deal more proportionately with low level crime such as some antisocial behaviour or minor criminal damage out of court.

Using a Community Resolution in place of a formal prosecution helps reduce pressure on the criminal justice system while actively engaging victims to have a say in the punishment that offenders receive.
