Submitted to the Legislation Committee Parliament of Western Australia on Proposed Criminal Investigation Amendment Bill

Abstract
Through our daily work, SCALES witnesses the impact of legislative amendments such as the ones proposed. There are many difficulties with the proposed Criminal Investigation Amendment Bill; however the three main issues that we would like to deal with in this submission are:
1. They breach human rights; specifically the right to privacy and freedom from degrading treatment;
2. They have an increased negative impact on vulnerable groups;
3. They have already been proven to be a failure in other jurisdictions; such as the UK.
