Law reform submissions 2025

Legal Aid’s advocacy work doesn’t stop when we leave the court room. We work hard to identify how the legal system is working for our clients, and where it needs to be better. We meet with, and write to, government and parliament, to make sure they know about the issues that impact our clients. You can see our 2025 submissions below.
