Abstract | In Hong Kong, as elsewhere, a fairly standard set of grounds is relied upon in sentencing offenders. However, increasing recognition has recently been given to the effect of what might loosely be described as 'hardship' and 'humanitarian' considerations to achieve a fairer treatment of persons committing certain kinds of offences. |
