Crimes (Increased Penalty for Providing Explosive to Commit Crime) Amendment Bill

Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.

The purpose of this bill is to amend the Crimes Act 1961 to increase the penalty for providing explosives to commit an offence from a maximum of 2 years to a maximum of 5 years imprisonment.
