[Relations with Social Defence Commissions and utility of leave techniques (author's transl)]

The authors insist on the importance of relations between Social Defence Commissions and institutions. The Commission has large powers, allowing a better resocialisation of the individual. Measures such as leaves of greater length are a king of trial for the patient. These measures avoid the patient to move in an unreal situation, and even if sometimes there is failure, this failure can still be used for therapeutic purpose. These leaves are the subject of discussions within the group, so that all members of the treating team are concerned.
