The national children’s commissioner says interviews with more than 150 young people about their experiences in the criminal justice system have revealed “evidence of the most egregious breaches of human rights in this country”.
Commissioner Anne Hollonds released a landmark report on Tuesday titled Help Way Earlier, which calls for the establishment of a national taskforce to reform child justice systems.
