Review of Victoria's Child Protection Legislative Arrangements - 17-06-2010

Contibuted By: Jen

April 2010: The Victorian Law Reform Commission was requested by the Attorney General to review Victoria’s child protection legislative and administrative arrangements in relation to Children’s Court processes, and to recommend any procedural, administrative and legislative changes that may minimise disputation and maintain a focus on the best interests of children. YACVic worked collaboratively with the Victorian Council of Social Service (VCOSS) to develop a submission to the Commission. Read YACVic and VCOSS's submission.

Marginalised Young People, Surveillance and Public Space

YACVic and the School of Political and Social Inquiry, Monash University were very pleased to have Dr. Helen Szoke, (Commissioner, Victorian Equal Opportunity and Human Rights Commission) launch a new research report ‘Marginalised Young People, Surveillance and Public Space’ on the 1st of September, 2010. The report examines young people’s perceptions of surveillance and security in inner city Melbourne.
In her speech, Dr Szoke commented:"When I read the report, I was struck by how sophisticated the analysis is, which is in effect what we need when we are dealing with complex issues, where we are trying to address systemic problems with linear instruments."
