About

The Non-consensual sexual offence law reform in Western Australia course offered by University of Sydney will discuss recent law reform activity in this area in other Australian jurisdictions – most notably, New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria. 

Overview

What you will study

The Attorney-General of Western Australia has asked that State’s Law Reform Commission to review Western Australia’s sexual offence laws. On 23 December 2022, the Commission published a Discussion Paper that deals with, among other things, the law relating to sexual consent and the operation of honest and reasonable mistake of fact in non-consensual sexual offence proceedings. This Non-consensual sexual offence law reform in Western Australia course offered by University of Sydney will consider the various reform options.

Programme Structure

The program focuses on:

  • how the law should define ‘consent’
  • vitiating circumstances such as mistakes and threats
  • the circumstances in which the honest and reasonable mistake of fact excuse should be available to a person accused of non-consensual sexual offending
