Ruth Money: Victims' Advocate on Labour's new crime policy

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Mondays

There are concerns over the Government's latest attempt to tackle youth crime. New measures have been announced including making posting criminal behaviour online an aggravating factor in sentencing. Coercing young people to commit crime will also be considered an aggravating factor, and the Family Court is getting stronger powers to dish out community service. Victims' Advocate, Ruth Money, told Mike Hosking that the changes lack detail and substance. She says there's a lot of words that look like there'll be action, but technically there's not much action at all. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
