Women Surviving as Victims in the Criminal Justice System in Queensland: Is Re victimisation Inevitable?
Abstract
In November, 1998, a 20 member all-female "Taskforce on Women and the Criminal Code" was established by the Queensland Minister for Justice and Attorney-General, Matt Foley, and the Minister for Equity and Fair Trading (including Women's Policy), Judy Spence. The Taskforce was requested to examine, report and make recommendations on the impact of the Criminal Code (Qld) and the criminal justice system, its court practices and procedures, on women, whether as victims, defendants, or witnesses.
