Intégrer la notion de consentement dans la définition pénale des infractions d’agression sexuelle et de viol

This legislative proposal aims to update the legal definitions of sexual assault and rape by explicitly incorporating the concept of consent. By shifting the focus to the presence of clear consent rather than the presence of violence or coercion, the law seeks to better align criminal definitions with the reality of sexual violence. This change would primarily affect the judicial system and legal proceedings regarding sexual offenses. It would change how prosecutors and judges determine if a crime has been committed, potentially expanding the scope of punishable offenses.
