72 “For the purpose of this Decision, restorative justice refers to a comprehensive view of the<br />

criminal justice process, in which the needs of the victim are prioritised and offen<strong>de</strong>r<br />

accountability is emphasised in a positive manner and covers a body of i<strong>de</strong>as that is relevant<br />

to various forms of sanctioning and conflict handling in the successive stages of or in con -<br />

nection with e criminal justice process.”<br />

73 “Because of the inherent community orientation and the grass-root level of the restorative<br />

justice <strong>de</strong>velopment, the network shall, in performing its tasks and activities as <strong>de</strong>scribed in<br />

the Article 4, pay in particu<strong>la</strong>r attention to the cooperation and the stimu<strong>la</strong>tion of exchanges<br />

with non-governmental organisations working in the field of restorative justice. To enable<br />

the network to achieve its aims in the most efficient and valuable way, the network can<br />

<strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong> to call upon the know-how and experience of those non-governmental organisations<br />

working in the field of restorative justice and even <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong> to cooperate in a more structured<br />

way.”<br />
