自由党置受害者为先

如果明年维洲自由党于大选中胜出，顺利执政，自由党将置受害者为先，而非罪犯为先。

在工党政府的执政中，经历犯罪荼毒的受害者彷彿被视为二等公民，司法体系对罪犯的权利和利益关怀备至，但相对的也忽视了受苦的受害者。

这置罪犯为先，受害者为后的观念，在自由党政府的领导下将产生天翻地复的变化。 首先自由党会更贴切的倾听民意，犯罪的受害者可受邀参与司法改革相关讨论，并提供建议。 新法通过前，也将评估该法案是否能维护受害者权益。

在保护受害者权益之时，自由党政府也将强化法制，改革当前保释与假释相关法规，对社区邻里的安全提供更多保障，多管齐下，保护更多人免于犯罪的荼毒，打造一个更和谐安定的社会。

Liberals to put victims first

If the Liberal-Nationals Coalition is elected in Victoria next year, it will put crime victims first instead of criminals.

Under the Labor government, victims of crime have been treated as second class citizens, and the justice system has been too much about looking after criminals instead of looking after victims.

This will change under a Liberal-Nationals government.  Victims of crime will be consulted about all new justice-related legislation, and all proposals for new justice laws will first be assessed for whether they are compatible with victims’ rights, before they can proceed to become law.

As well as protecting the rights of victims, and Liberal-Nationals government will ensure stronger sentences, bail laws and parole laws that will properly protect our community.
