The Office's Analysis

The Forest of Aeneas’ GA resolution proposal “Ending Collective Punishment” addresses an internationally and transnationally important form of unjust punishment in many criminal justice systems. The proposal seeks to ban collective punishment, restricting the criminalization of any individual who did not assist or commit a crime on the basis of association with a criminal. The proposal also requires the immediate rescinding of anyone unjustly convicted via collective punishment in clause 2, and an important distinction between punishing organized crime and collective punishment in clause 3.
This straightforward, clear resolution cleanly details the exact parameters of collective punishment, and works to fully cut off collective punishment while not exonerating accessories to crime. While Clause 2 has been cause for concern over the logistical aspects of restoring damages caused by prolonged collective punishment, the resolution nonetheless offers up the best available resolution at hand when balancing effectiveness and logistics. Therefore, the Office of WA Legislation recommends a vote FOR the passing of “Ending Collective Punishment”.
