Description

Queenslands Youth Justice Minister, Laura Gerber, is proposing a new law allowing ankle monitors for children as young as ten on bail, following a successful trial program. The report on the trials success will be presented to parliament this Wednesday, with Minister Gerber stating that the monitors significantly deterred reoffending. The proposal comes as the number of serious repeat youth offenders has dropped by sixteen percent.
