Ambrose tables private bill; judges, lawyers should receive training when it comes to sexual assault cases
Description
February 23, 2017
Interim Conservative leader Rona Ambrose tabled her private member’s bill called the Judicial Accountability through Sexual Assault Law Training Act (JUST Act). The bill requires that lawyers who want to become eligible for a federally appointed position, as well as current sitting judges, receive proper training when it comes to sexual assault and rape cases in court. This, said Ambrose, will improve transparency and accountability and provide more confidence to survivors.
