The organisation representing women lawyers in Tasmania has called for an end to the culture of secrecy surrounding how sexual misconduct is dealt with within the state s legal system.
Key points:
Tasmanian Women Lawyers (TWL) released a statement calling for a judicial commission into the handling of sexual harassment and misconduct allegations
They believe it would allow a clear process for all complaints regarding judicial behaviour that is open and allows for procedural fairness for all parties
