WA Premier aims to make Crown pay court costs in prosecutions
The Tonkin government plans a landmark reform to hold Crown bodies liable for costs when prosecutions fail. Praised as revolutionary by Perth legal circles, the proposal could make WA unique in requiring costs against the Crown in civil and criminal actions. The plan faces cost questions and seeks to ensure accessible justice, with debate over implications for agencies like State Housing and Electricity Commissions.
