The last national government brought in changes to the youth court system, bringing seventeen year olds under its jurisdiction. The changes haven’t been in efect for long but there is already a problem that has resulted in a dual court process for some offenders.

Lachlan spoke with Tania Sawicki Mead from JustSpeak bout the changes.
