The New South Wales Sentencing Council has released its first report into penalties relating to sexual assault offences and child pornography. The report examines whether the penalties currently attaching to sexual offences in NSW are appropriate. In response, Attorney General John Hatzistergos announced that the government would introduce during the current parliamentary session legislation to provide for new offences and increases in penalties. Copies of the report may be downloaded from the Sentencing Council's web site.
