Résumé : | The judiciary systems in most Caribbean countries have some system of non-custodial treatments whether enshrined in legislation or informally implemented by magistrates who understand that incarceration is not always the best solution in dealing with offenders. However; these measures have not been widely implemented owing to a variety of issues that vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, leaving unresolved the excessive overcrowding in Caribbean prisons. This manual aims to discuss the issues that hamper the wider implementation of non-custodial treatment in the Caribbean and to suggest some possible solutions, which may contribute to easing this overcrowding. It is envisaged that the resulting decreases in inmate numbers would enable the correctional systems to function more effectively. This paper will firstly make a case for the implementation of non-custodial sentencing in the sub regional grouping of countries of the Eastern Caribbean region, known as the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States. We will then go on to briefly discuss the international legal framework for the implementation of non-custodial sentences. |
