‘Inappropriate interference’

    • It prosecutes criminal cases in the ACT, operating free from government influence.
    • That is, free from the parliament and the executive, which includes police ministers and police commissioners.
    • In other words, the DPP is to remain above politics, and stick entirely to principles of law, and agreed prosecutorial guidelines.

The task ahead

    • Sofronoff has quite the task ahead of him.
    • The decision as to whether to proceed with a prosecution remains with the DPP.
    • That is, the discretionary guidelines given to the DPP by legislation in relation to their choice to prosecute.
    • Rick Sarre is affiliated with the SA Labor Party, and is a Patron of the Justice Reform Initiative.
