dc.description.notesRape laws in Australia and other common law countries have been reformed extensively in recent years to reflect changing standards and expectations regarding both sexual conduct and the appropriate treatment of sexual assault victims in criminal trials. Particular attention has been addressed to instituting what has been called a ‘communicative model’ of sexuality, to improving the experience of sexual assault complainants in the criminal justice process, and to redressing the underreporting of sexual offences. Moreover, as sexual assaults are significantly less likely than other comparable criminal offences to obtain convictions, reform efforts have also sought to address the significant ‘justice gap’ between rape reports and trial outcomes. However, as a number of commentators have discussed, the objectives of statutory rape law reform have often been frustrated or not realised in their implementation.en
