Wijziging van het Wetboek van Strafvordering in verband met de eigen bijdrage van veroordeelden aan de kosten van de strafvordering en de slachtofferzorg
This Dutch bill amends the Code of Criminal Procedure so that people convicted of crimes would pay a personal contribution toward the costs of their criminal prosecution and toward victim support services. The proposal concerns how the state recovers some of the expenses of criminal cases from those found guilty. Based on the title alone, it is a national measure and does not involve EU law. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text. The main people affected would be convicted offenders, who would face an additional financial obligation alongside any sentence. Victims and the wider justice system could also be affected if the revenue is used to fund victim care. The exact amounts and conditions are not stated in the metadata.
