| dc.description.notes | FINAL REPORT; November 2000<br/ >Attempts to draw together recent social science research, academic commentary and Canadian jurisprudence examining the impact and effectiveness of ‘no drop’ policies in reducing the incidence and recidivism rates of spousal abuse. The report provides an overview of six main areas – the effectiveness of ‘no drop’ policies in achieving deterrence, victims, prosecutors and police perspectives on the policy, alternatives and suggestions for reform and judicial commentary on the developments. Whilst the case law on mandatory charging was found to be relatively sparse, a wide range of studies relating to the effectiveness of and responses to the policy have been conducted, producing mixed results. It is suggested that further research and evaluation of existing approaches are needed if the impact of ‘no drop’ policies is to be fully understood. | en |
