Justice

Justice picture

The State Government is committed to an accessible, efficient and effective justice system for all Tasmanians with contemporary laws that help create an inclusive, just, safe and forward-thinking society.

 

Labor also plans to reduce re-offending rates and foster community confidence. It continues to develop and maintain a strong Prison Service and Community Corrections Service to achieve this objective. While incarcerated, offenders are provided with a wide range of opportunities for rehabilitation and personal development.

 

The State Government has embraced the vision of Tasmania Together, specifically Goal 2: confident, friendly and safe communities. Fostering high-quality services that create a fair, safe and equitable marketplace for consumers through the Office of Consumer Affairs and Fair Trading is also important to the Government.
