Review of NSW youth justice legislation
The NSW government has released information about its review of the Young Offenders Act 1997 (NSW) and the Children (Criminal Proceedings) Act 1987 (NSW), which aims to ensure these pieces of youth justice legislation continue to reflect best practice and meet the needs of young people and the community, including victims.
