Law reform and public affairs

New South Wales Bar Association President Arthur Moses SC has welcomed today’s announcement by the State Government that it will invest in two new courtrooms with state of the art facilities, but cautioned that more than this is needed to have any real impact on delays in the criminal justice system. He has asked that the government give additional funding for the justice system in the NSW Budget. View his media release here.

Attorney General Mark Speakman and Treasurer Perrottet announced today that $8.5 million will be spent on two new trial courts at the Downing Centre in Sydney’s CBD, and on a new State Parole Authority hearing room at the Sydney West Trial Courts in Parramatta, which will free up a courtroom for trials there.
