The link and image are from the latest VLRC report to be tabled in the Victorian parliament. A concern was raised about lawyers’ fees and group litigation actions by plaintiffs in Victoria. The overview and report will provide interesting reading for students looking to extend their knowledge in Unit 4. I look forward to reading it myself this weekend, as we approach the end of the 2018 course.

Outcome 2
On completion of this unit the student should be able to discuss the factors that affect the ability of parliament and
courts to make law, evaluate the ability of these law-makers to respond to the need for law reform, and analyse
how individuals, the media and law reform bodies can influence a change in the law.
