Inquiry into the transport of persons in custody in Western Australia

Public Administration Committee· 13 September 2016inquiry_report

This WA parliamentary committee report is a response to the Government's response to a previous report (Report 26) on the transport of persons in custody. The committee found the Government's response to be inadequate, failing to address substantive issues or clearly state its position on the recommendations made in Report 26. The committee recommends that the Leader of the House table a further, more comprehensive Government Response.

Impact

The report impacts the Department of Justice, Corrective Services, and potentially persons in custody. A clearer government response is needed to improve practices and address risks in prisoner transport.
