In late 2008, the Judicial Research Project of Flinders University provided the Judicial Conference of Australia with a brief report based on the 2007 National Survey of Australian Judges and the 2007 National Survey of Australian Magistrates.
This further report expands on that earlier material, incorporating further analysis of survey data as well as material from the courts and a literature review. It considers the entire judiciary as well as distinguishing the views or experiences of judges and magistrates or judges in different types of courts, where appropriate.
