This is a report on one part of a larger study on car stealing in Australia which was originally supported by a grant from the Victoria Law Foundation and is being continued as a research project approved by the Board of Management of the Australian Institute of Criminology, Canberra.
Foreword | Because of the multiplicity and complexity of legislation concerning illegal drug matters in Australia, it is often difficult to obtain precise comparative information about legal provisions governing drug offences. The Institute is often asked to provide up-to-date tables on matters such as maximum penalties for various offences or quantities of drugs which result in different legal categorisations.
During March 1981, a seminar on Aboriginal criminological research, held at the Australian Institute of Criminology, recommended inter alia the Institute establish a data center with respect to Aboriginal criminal justice research, innovations and crime prevention programs. The Institute's Board of Management subsequently decreed that an attempt be made to disseminate the data obtained.
