1.

that where an offender is convicted of

(a)

a sexual offence involving a child, or

(b)

an offence set out in

(i)

section 271 (sexual assault) that has been proceeded with by way of indictment,

(ii)

section 272 (sexual assault with a weapon, threats to a third party or causing bodily harm), or

(iii)

section 273 (aggravated sexual assault),

or an attempt to commit any of these offences, the offender shall, before being sentenced, be examined by two psychiatrists to determine

(c)

in the case of sexual offence involving a child, whether the offender is likely to commit or attempt to commit such an offence in the future, and

(d)

in the case of an offence referred to in section 271 that has been proceeded with by way of indictment, or section 272 or 273, whether the offender is likely to cause or attempt to cause death, injury or serious psychological harm to another person through a failure in the future to control his or her sexual impulses; and

2.

that where the psychiatrists conclude

(a)

in the case of a sexual offence involving a child, that the offender is likely to commit or attempt to commit such an offence in the future, or

(b)

in the case of an offence mentioned in section 271 that has been proceeded with by way of indictment, or section 272 or 273, that the offender is likely to cause or attempt to cause death, injury or serious psychological harm to another person through a failure in the future to control his or her sexual impulses,

the Attorney General of the province in which the offender was tried shall direct that an application be brought to have the offender declared a dangerous offender.

The question was put on the motion and it was negatived on the following division:
