Criminal justice system review : performance measurement indicators / prepared by Marsha Axford.: J4-53/2016E-PDF

"The first, and last, comprehensive review of the Canadian criminal justice system (CJS) was completed in 1982 (Government of Canada, 1982). Notably absent from this review were criminal justice issues with respect to Indigenous people, mental health, marginalized populations, and victims. The 2015 Mandate Letter tasked the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada with a review of the criminal justice system which, among other priorities, includes improvements in efficiency and effectiveness, discrete legislative reforms, addressing gaps in service, decreasing representation of Indigenous and vulnerable populations, and ensuring current provisions are aligned with the objectives of the criminal justice system. An additional component of the criminal justice system review (CJSR) is the development of a performance measurement framework for the CJS"--Introd., p. 3.
