On 10 October 2024, the Law Council held a roundtable under the banner of Safer Children, Safer Communities. The roundtable brought together a number of senior policy makers and select civil society representatives to discuss the recommendations of the National Children’s Commissioner’s report ‘Help Way Earlier!’
The event fostered intersectional consideration of how the recommendations may be implemented, and served to focus further attention on the urgent child rights situation presented by child justice policy settings and outcomes across the country, as highlighted in the Commissioner’s report.
