Public forum on Law and Order, Crime and Punishment and Safer Communities in Tasmania

On Wed 8th November JusTas is hosting this public forum at Glenorchy Football Club starting at 6pm sharp and concluding at 7:30pm.

The evening will bring together members of the public in the Northern Suburbs of Glenorchy and beyond with politicians from the three major parties as well as two other prominent Tasmanians.

Also, we will be joined live via Skype to the United States to discuss recent responses to crime and incarceration with a prominent policy maker in Texas.
