Require magistrates courts to record court hearings so there is a record

Petition Details

The magistrates court is currently is a court of no record. We want magistrates courts to start recording hearings so there is a record of what was said within the proceedings of the hearing.

Additional Information

We think this could prevent magistrates misconducting themselves and assist with complaints. Where a complaint is made to the advisory committee about the behaviour of a magistrate, we think this could assist in an prompt, transparent and fair investigation.

We think this could restore the public faith in the courts and prevent undue miscarriages of justice.
