The Government has allocated $32.3 million over the next four years to reinstate court diversionary processes. This includes $8.7 million to reinstate courts such as the Murri Court and Special Circumstances Court Diversion program.
These specialist courts help address the underlying causes of offending and divert offenders from prison. The allocation of $23.6 million will allow for the reinstatement of court-based referrals to Youth Justice Conferencing.
