Details of a new restraint planned for juveniles at Banksia Hill Detention Centre will not be disclosed, the Department of Justice says, as the potentially deadly "folding-up" technique is phased out this month.
The West Australian department said it would ban the folding-up practice, also known as a hogtie or figure-four restraint, after a Four Corners investigation revealed young people were being restrained in the device at Banksia Hill Detention Centre.
