Bill C-283

44th Parl. 1st Sess.
March 22, 2023
An Act to amend the Criminal Code and the Corrections and Conditional Release Act (addiction treatment in penitentiaries)
  • Bill C-283 is a proposed law that aims to amend the Criminal Code and the Corrections and Conditional Release Act in Canada. The purpose of the bill is to provide addiction treatment in penitentiaries. If a person who is sentenced to imprisonment in a penitentiary requests it and meets certain conditions, a court may recommend that they serve their sentence, or part of it, in a designated addiction treatment facility within the penitentiary. The bill also requires the Correctional Service of Canada to ensure that a person who receives this recommendation is placed in a designated facility as soon as possible. The goal of this bill is to provide necessary treatment and support for individuals struggling with addiction while they are in prison.
