Gallop Wants Power To Imprison Paedophiles For Life
The Labor Party in Western Australia wants to introduce new
legislation giving government the power to keep serial child
sex offenders in prison for life.
Premier Geoff Gallop says the laws would be similar to existing
ones in Queensland and would apply to paedophiles with no chance
of being rehabilitated.
The government would apply to the courts at the end of the
offender's sentence to have it extended.
Dr Gallop does not believe the legislation is an infringement
on civil liberties.
He says it is important to protect children.
"There are hard-core paedophiles who are in the community who
do represent a threat in the community, who are serious and
repeat offenders," he said.
The director of CentreCare, Tony Pietropiccolo, says while
the idea is welcome, more needs to be done to rehabilitate offenders.
"We will need to have services available for people in jail
to ensure every opportunity is given for them to rehabilitate," he said.
The State Government also wants to develop a national
database of paedophiles.

Protection For Victims
SEXUAL assault victims no longer will have
to face their alleged attackers in Western
Australian courts, under laws
expected to be passed
next month.
Under the new legislation, victims would not
have to be cross-examined in front of
their accused. Instead,
they would be able to
give evidence by closed-circuit television, or from
behind a screen.
Attorney-General Jim
McGinty said that the
reforms were intended
to help victims of serious
crimes. Such protection
already was available to
child victims.

WA Children To Receive
Psychiatric Treatment Without Parental Consent
West Australian parents and guardians need to be aware of the sweeping powers
being recommended for psychiatrists in the state and their impact on families.
The Government has supported recommendations in the Reveiw of Mental Health Act
for new laws allowing psychiatric treatments to be given to children without the consent
of parents or a guardian.
These recommendations could see any child, regardless of age, detained by law and treated
involuntarily. They may be forcibly given mind-altering drugs, restrained and secluded and
could also be given electric shock treatment if over the age of 12- all without any
parental or guardian consent required, according to Ron Carlisle, spokesperson for the
Citizens Committee on Human Rights (CCHR).
Other recommendations and their results include:
When a child is detained involuntarily, the right of a parent to visit or phone
may be withdrawn if a psychiatrist decides it is in the best interests of the child
to have no contact with the parents.
"Reasonable force" may be used to administer drugs and other treatment.
Legislation may not be passed to ensure that children are kept
seperate from adults in a psychiatric facilitity.
To support CCHR's campaign to protect WA children, contact your local member
of Parliament and the Health Minister. To sign a petition demanding
that our children are protected and parental rights remain intact contact CCHR.

SafeCare
Providing a safe haven/ secrecy for sex offenders...
SafeCare offers a 2 year government funded
(community) counselling program for child sex offenders.
WA is the only Australian State without
MANDATORY REPORTING
- If WA introduced MANDATORY REPORTING, then all sex offenders, including
those who are referred to Safecare, would by law have their details
reported/provided to the correct authorities for investigation.
Safecare provide a way out for sex offenders/paedophiles..By going to
safecare they are escaping Police detection-not even the names are
reported to Police.These offenders are obviously mixing
together - another recipe for disaster..
The SAFETY of the community must be paramount and
to have 100's of sex offenders walking around in communities
unknown to Police or the public is careless at best..
Having child sex offender programs in the community effectively
places further children from all communities at RISK
(the average child sex offender will abuse 45+ children over a lifetime)..
Imagine for a moment if your child was molested, or you were
raped.. then no criminal action was taken against the
offender, not even his name reported to Police,this would
be unacceptable punishment for most crimes let alone
sexual offences against CHILDREN.
At the moment these Paedophiles get a green light to
walk around undetected,free to harrass the victim,
free to re/offend..
SAFECARE should be SHUT DOWN or operate from prison..
Any sex offender programs/therapy should be offered
in jail and "all sex offenders details" reported
directly to Police..MAKO Inc
