Petition Action

Justice for the victims of sexual predators.

Petition Details

Direct courts to issue harsher sentences to sex offenders.
Have a more robust victim support scheme.

Additional Information

In recent times I have become dismayed by the amount of lenient sentences handed out to sex offenders. Some of the sentences have not included prison sentences and those that have had prison sentences have had very lenient prison terms imposed. This is undermining the public’s trust in the justice system. Support for the victims of sexual predators has been lacking
