Abstract

This article explores the interplay and impact of the first few years of Victoria’s prison privatisation policy on government accountability institutions, mechanisms, remedies, procedures and relationships. The evolution of prisons and then relationship to the private sector are outlined. The discussion ends by offering suggestions regarding the development of a more relevant accountability model appropriate to new public management realities.
