Source: Australia. Attorney-General. Media release
"The Standing Committee of Attorneys-General (SCAG) today (16/4/09) agreed to develop a comprehensive national response to combat organised crime.
Organised crime operates on a national scale and is estimated to cost Australia over $10 billion every year.
A nationally consistent response is essential to ensure there can be no safe havens for organised crime groups.
As part of this approach, State and Territory Attorneys-General agreed to consider key common features to be contained in legislation to combat organised crime activities."
