| Notes: | In NSW, the week commencing 4 April 2016 was a landmark for investigations and trials of sex offences against children; a 3 year pilot began for children's champions (witness intermediaries) and for pre-recording the cross-examination of child complainants. These provisions were enacted in November 2015 when the Criminal Procedure Amendment (Child Sexual Offence Evidence Pilot) Act 2015 ('the Act') became law. The author was engaged to write the procedural guidance, design and deliver accredited children's champion training and run awareness raising seminars for the judiciary, prosecutors, police and social workers. |
