To be considered eligible for the program the accused must:
be willing to accept responsibility for the actions that led to the charge
be willing to make amends for their offence
complete an agreement that outlines the terms of the sanction.

The Crown attorney will notify the accused on or before their first court appearance if they are considered eligible.
