The relevance of lawful correction in contemporary Australia: A reply to the NSW Attorney General
Recently, the New South Wales Attorney General indicated that section 61AA of the Crimes Act 1900 (NSW) is working as intended by meeting its policy objectives and, therefore, parental corporal punishment will remain legal even in the face of ongoing advocacy for its repeal. This Brief argues that society has moved on and that corporal punishment and the defence of lawful correction do not enjoy the same level of support that they did more than two decades ago when the criminal law was amended to include s 61AA, and it is time to repeal this provision.
