The favourable outcome of the experiment meant that ……………
In 1984, the Dutch government decided to conduct an experiment in order to solve the problem of overcrowding in prisons. For a trial period of six months, criminals convicted of minor offences, such as shop-lifting, vandalism and other non-violent crimes had a choice of punishment. They could, instead of serving a prison sentence, do “community service”. One youth, for example, who had stolen an elderly gentleman's car, paid for his misdeed by entirely redecorating his victim's house. Nearly all the offenders who chose this form of punishment did not reoffend. The success of the experiment has placed ‘community service' permanently in the Dutch penal system.
