Wijziging van de Penitentiaire beginselenwet en het Wetboek van Strafrecht in verband met de herijking van de wijze van de tenuitvoerlegging van vrijheidsbenemende sancties en de invoering van elektronische detentie

Stage submittedUpdated 5mo ago

This procedure concerns updates to the Prison Principles Act and the Criminal Code to refine how custodial sentences are executed. A key focus is the introduction of electronic detention as an alternative to traditional imprisonment to improve the management of prison capacity. These changes primarily affect convicted individuals serving custodial sentences and the judicial system, providing more flexibility in how sentences are carried out through the use of electronic monitoring.
