The Department of Justice is working on a proposal to change Tasmania’s guardianship laws to make the system work better. We (the Department of Justice) want people to tell us their experiences under the current law. We also want to know what people think of the things we are looking at changing.

We want to change the law to make sure that people living with a disability have their human rights protected. This includes making new laws that the Tribunal and guardians and administrators have to follow. This includes the Public Guardian and the Public Trustee.

The formal legislation and information were available from the Department of Justice. The review period has now closed. Then legislation amendment was passed in 2023.
