|
|
people between the ages of 10 and 17, who have to be dealt with by the Youth Court.</i></p><hr/><p>It is a community sentence which is intended to offer an early opportunity for
|
|
work and/or support to help prevent further offending. The Action Plan Order lasts for three months from the date of the Order being made. </p><p>The Action Plan Order aims to prevent re-offending by ensuring that the young person complies with
|
|
the requirements of an Action Plan, which will be designed to address the causes
|
|
of such behaviour by requiring the young person to complete any of a number of
|
|
specific tasks.</p><p>It aims to encourage the young person to take responsibility for their actions
|
|
and to consider the wishes and feelings of victims of crime. It will also consider
|
|
the need for 'reparation' (putting things right) to the victim(s).</p><p>Specific requirements of an Action Plan Order may include:</p><ul>
|
|
<li title="*">Participation in activities.</li>
|
|
<li title="*">Attendance at offence focused work groups.</li>
|
|
<li title="*">Attendance at an Attendance Centre.</li>
|
|
<li title="*">Staying away from specified places.</li>
|
|
<li title="*">Monitored school attendance.</li>
|
|
<li title="*">Reparation, either to the victim of the offence or to the community as a whole.</li>
|
|
<li title="*">Attendance at a review hearing at the Youth Court.</li>
|
|
</ul><p>The Court can use a combination of any of the above elements
|
|
to create an Action Plan for any individual. It may also choose to impose a Parenting
|
|
Order on the parents of a young person subject to an Action Plan Order.</p><p>A Responsible Officer will be appointed from the Youth Offending
|
|
Team to supervise/co-ordinate the programme of work.</p><h2>
|
|
What will happen if the young person fails
|
|
to co-operate?</h2><p>At most, two warnings within the period of the Order may be
|
|
given before Breach Proceedings are taken.
|
|
Breach Proceedings will involve the young person being returned to Court. The Court
|
|
may discharge the Order and re-sentence for the original offence.</p><p>Breach Proceedings can be taken at any stage of the Order (regardless
|
|
of the length of time it has to run) and without prior warning if the failure to
|
|
comply is serious, such as an attempt to avoid its completion or serious misconduct.
|

</p><h2>
|
|
|
|
What do Parents/Guardians have to do?</h2><p>Parents/Guardians should:</p><ul>
|
|
<li title="*">Attend Court with the young person.</li>
|
|
<li title="*">Encourage the young person to appreciate fully the consequences of their offending
|
|
behaviour.</li>
|
|
<li title="*">Ensure that the young person successfully completes the activities assigned
|
|
to him/her.</li>
|
|
<li title="*">Co-operate with any Parenting Order that may be imposed. </li>
