Eighth Amendment of the Constitution: Constitutional Issues Arising from the Citizens Assembly Recommendations

Ms Emily Logan:
We have included some information and I should preface my comments by saying they are not necessarily endorsements or recommendations but in the policy statement we look briefly at five other jurisdictions. There are other jurisdictions where that happens but we have not gone so far as to say that we are endorsing or making that recommendation, it is just a consideration for members, as legislators, but it does exist in other jurisdictions. Perhaps Professor Mullally wishes to add to that.
