An Act to amend the Criminal Code, the Judges Act and the Director of Public Prosecutions Act (orders prohibiting publication of identifying information) = Loi modifiant le Code criminel, la Loi sur les...: XB441-334/1-PDF

"This enactment amends the Criminal Code to improve communications with a victim before and after a court makes an order to protect the victim's identity, to prohibit the order from being made without the victim's consent in a case where the victim is consulted before the prosecutor applies for such an order, and to establish a procedure for revoking or varying such an order. In the case of an adult victim of certain offences, including sexual offences, it also provides that a court may revoke or vary the order when prompted to do so by the victim's impact statement. Finally, this enactment amends the Judges Act and the Director of Public Prosecutions Act to provide for training relating to such orders and their impact on victims of sexual offences for federally appointed judges and prosecutors"--Summary, page ii.
