Report 100 (2003) - Contempt by publication
Terms of reference
On 14 July 1998, the Attorney General, the Hon J W Shaw QC, MLC asked the Law Reform Commission:
To inquire into, and report on, whether the law and procedures relating to contempt by publication are adequate and appropriate, including whether and in what circumstances, a person against whom a charge of contempt is found proven should be liable to pay, in addition to any criminal penalty, the costs (of the government and of the parties) of a criminal trial aborted as a result of the contempt.
