She spoke about how there would need to be an appropriate process for this to happen.
“Obviously you don’t want a situation where you have Soram (Sex Offender Risk Assessment and Management) which is not necessarily equipped for dealing with victims as opposed to offenders, presenting someone with a photo if they haven’t asked for it or it’s not something that they required," she said.
Kenny also raised the issue of victims not being contacted directly when their offender is released despite having the right to the information.
At present victims are entitled to information about their offenders' release, however, they must request this information rather than being automatically notified.
This can cause further hurt and trauma to victims and Mr.Kenny highlighted this.
“I think we have all at different occasions come across circumstances where individuals have got the shock of their lives when they meet the person that had done them serious harm on the street or in the supermarket or wherever and were unaware that they were released," he told the committee.
