A fair resolution may lie somewhere in between. The commission may have gone a bit too far in proposing more detailed and frequent accounts than is necessary. But the basic idea of corporate probation has several merits. Additionally, it is likely that the shaming effect probation has on executives, and the warning it provides to shareholders, would encourage rehabilitation. Forcing corporations to set up internal guidelines and supervisory schemes is surely a way to ensure greater integrity.
Community service is perhaps the commission's most imaginative recommendation.
The guidelines allow judges to sentence a corporation to community service provided that it is related to repairing the damage caused by the offense. These are the questions citizens ought to be asking of the commission now.
