To make a comparative assessment of strategies to effectively manage prosecution disclosure

The fair trial of an accused requires the prosecution to not only disclose the evidence to be relied on at trial but also disclose all relevant unused material. In a digital age where the volume of material gathered by police is increasing exponentially, the effectiveness of our criminal justice system is being undermined by failures to disclosure. This project aims to undertake a comparative study of the practical treatments developed in like jurisdictions for the more effective management of criminal disclosure, particularly in complex white collar and transnational organised crime cases. This project will also seek to identify whether the more effective use of technology can assist with this process.
