- Abstract
This article examines the impact of Young Offender’s Act 1994 (WA) ‘YOA’ s126. It does this by considering the text, context and purpose of the provision when juxtaposed with the sentencing jurisprudence that underpins the sentencing of young people. The sentencing process of young people is ordinarily complicated. The goal of this article is to shed light on the history and application of this provision in light of that ordinarily complicated sentencing process.
