Who we are
Activity from 1st January 2001 Act. No. 257/2000 Coll.
PMS CZ is a governmental organisation that ensures the control over the execution of punishments not connected to jail sentences, prepares the basis for imposing the sentences and offers the possibility to mediate a meeting of the perpetrator and the victim on the arrangement of consequences of the crime.
It is an institution that connects experience of two professions: social work and law, especially penal law.
These activities are ensured by probation officers and assistants.
