*Age Of Consent & Legal Sexual Activity for the State of
2nd
November 2007 Email
from the office of Hon. Attorney-General Mr. Kerry Shine in
reply to my 24th September 2007 email. The Attorney-General ignores the issue I
had raised of the increasing risk of HIV for youth as a result of the current
law and once again merely repeats
the Government’s standard line of
“no … plans for reform in this area”.
