In 2014, the Crimes (Mental Impairment and Unfitness to be Tried) Act 1997 in Victoria was extended to the Children's Court of Victoria. This article describes the processes that preceded this change and the changes that occurred. The potential opportunities consequent to the changes are described, with their corresponding ethical implications. The decision not to resource some of the changes as recommended by the Victorian Law Reform Commission is described, with reference to the lack of establishment of an adolescent forensic mental health facility. The shortfalls currently occurring and their ethical implications are also discussed. We note the need for data regarding the number of children whose matters are being heard under the Crimes (Mental Impairment and Unfitness to be Tried) Act 1997, and the resourcing implications that flow from this.
2014年，维多利亚州的《1997年犯罪（精神损伤与不适合受审）法案》扩展适用于维多利亚州儿童法庭。本文描述了这一变革之前的流程以及所发生的变化。阐述了变革带来的潜在机遇及其相应的伦理影响。提及因未设立青少年法医精神卫生机构而未按维多利亚州法律改革委员会建议为部分变革提供资源的决定。还讨论了当前存在的不足及其伦理影响。我们注意到需要有关根据《1997年犯罪（精神损伤与不适合受审）法案》审理案件的儿童数量的数据，以及由此产生的资源配置影响。
