Young offenders need guidance, as many of the young offenders may have had very little deep-seated guidance to begin with. A lengthy prison term with hard-assed criminals is simply not the way to rehabilitate a young person, no matter how serious their crime was. Simply put, section 16 contradicts the declaration of principles set out in the Y.O.A. act itself, and as such has no place in the act.
