Abstract

This article reports on a study into how the Queensland Law Reform Commission (‘QLRC’) cites journalarticles. It found that journal articles had a limited presence within QLRC reports, suggesting that QLRC doesnot engage significantly with academic literature in its approach to law reform. This raises issues both for lawreform and the Australian legal academy. For law reform there is the issue of whether the QLRC shouldengage more deeply with material from journal articles. For the Australian legal academy there is the issue ofwhether it should be researching and writing about matters of importance to reforming Australian law.
