Prosecution and Administrative Policies for the PPS

The policy documents in this Manual are intended to assist prosecutors in Nova Scotia in the exercise of their discretion. They do not create any rights and they do not have the force of law. The policy documents are reproduced here so that the public will be more fully aware of the principles which underlie the many decisions made by prosecutors in dealing with criminal matters.
