Launch of Enabling Justice report

Enabling Justice means helping the right thing to happen.

What is it about?
The report tells about people with intellectual disability who get in trouble with the police.
It talks about how people get into trouble again and again. Too many people end up in jail.
In jail they are likely to be hurt by other people there.
There are chances to help people so they don’t end up in jail. But these chances are being lost.

Who wrote Enabling Justice?
The Intellectual Disability Rights Service (IDRS).
Also The Coalition on Intellectual Disability and Criminal Justice and
The NSW Council for Intellectual Disability (NSW CID).

When can people read the report?
Justice Virginia Bell launched the report on 21st May, 2008, at State Parliament House.
