The ALRC is calling for submissions to its inquiry into Justice Responses to Sexual Violence (JRSV Inquiry). Submissions will remain open until Friday, 24 May 2024.
The ALRC has published an Issues Paper containing a number of questions to help guide submissions. The Issues Paper looks at a range of aspects relevant to the Inquiry, such as reporting, the police and prosecution response to sexual violence, the trial process, and civil justice options.
Through the JRSV Inquiry, the ALRC is considering how to harmonise laws about sexual violence across Australia and how to promote just outcomes for people who have experienced sexual violence.
