The child justice document archive
67 documents, kept online in full
For most of two decades this domain was a documentary resource on one subject: the campaign to give children in conflict with the law a statute of their own, and then the implementation of the Child Justice Act 75 of 2008. That material is still here in full — the bill and its text, the parliamentary record, the written and oral submissions of the organisations that argued over it, the research reports and the practitioner resources.
The Act and the Bill
14 documentsThe statute itself, the bill that became it, and the explanatory material published while it was being argued.
