The application of law enforcement efforts to justice restorative running optimally is a solution to these constraints. One impeding factor is the lack of a common application of the law as the foundation and guide for all law enforcement agencies, as well as the inconsistent application of regulations in the field in the handling of children in conflict with the law.
