Abstract

The objective of the Youth Court Survey (YCS) is to produce a national
database of statistical information on charges, cases and persons
involving accused who are aged 12 to 17 years (up to the 18th birthday)
at the time of the offence. The survey is intended to be a census of
federal statute charges (Criminal Code, Narcotic Control Act, Food and
Drugs Act, Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, Young Offenders Act, and
other federal statutes) heard in youth courts in Canada. The survey
excludes appeals, reviews, provincial statutes, and municipal by-law
infractions. Symbols: - nil or zero.
