🇦🇺 A Fair Go Means A Fair Justice System | Join 12,847 Australians Demanding Change
Evidence-based solutions for systemic change in Australia's justice system.
After extensive research and community consultation, Fair Go Justice has developed a three-pillar framework for meaningful justice reform. These interconnected pillars address the root causes of systemic failure and provide a roadmap for lasting change.
An independent body to investigate complaints against judicial officers and ensure accountability at all levels.
Currently, Australia lacks a national body to investigate serious complaints about judicial conduct. State-based systems are fragmented, under-resourced, and often perceived as lacking independence. When judges act improperly, there's often no meaningful remedy.
Similar bodies operate successfully in New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and Canada, demonstrating that judicial accountability and judicial independence can coexist.
Ensuring every Australian can access quality legal representation, regardless of income or location.
Over 850,000 Australians cannot afford legal representation. Legal aid funding has failed to keep pace with demand, leaving many facing complex legal matters without professional help. Average lawyer retainers of $30,000-$50,000 put justice out of reach for ordinary families.
Every dollar spent on legal aid saves an estimated $18 in downstream costs to courts, prisons, hospitals, and social services. Access to justice is not just fair—it's economically sound.
Mandatory standards for handling, storing, and disclosing evidence in all legal proceedings.
Too often, evidence goes missing, documents get backdated, and crucial information is withheld from courts. Without proper chain-of-custody protocols and disclosure requirements, the truth can be manipulated—and justice denied.
Modern blockchain and digital verification technologies can make evidence integrity affordable and reliable. The tools exist—we just need the political will to implement them.
These three pillars are interconnected. A Judicial Integrity Commission can only function if evidence is reliable. Legal aid only helps if the system itself is fair. Reform requires a comprehensive approach.
Join thousands of Australians demanding a Royal Commission to investigate systemic failures and implement these reforms.
