NSW child sex abuse victims will no longer have to endure the harrowing experience of facing their attacker in court under a new initiative to be rolled out state-wide.
Premier Dominic Perrottet has announced a pilot program allowing child victims to pre-record evidence, along with a range of other supports that will be expanded to every district court and police district in NSW.
"Child sexual abuse is one of the most heinous crimes and those children who have already endured the unimaginable should not have to suffer further at the hands of a justice system designed for adults," he told reporters on Wednesday.
