As the Bimberi debacle rolls on the Liberals’ Vicki Dunne has taken another swing at the recent report into the troubled youth justice facility:
Accusations of staff coercion were left out of the recent ACT Human Rights Commission’s review into the Bimberi Youth Justice Centre, Shadow Community Services Minister Vicki Dunne revealed today.
