This Petition is to register PUBLIC SUPPORT for the Victorian Government's Law Reform in regards to managing Sexual Offenders in the State of Victoria.

This Petition respects and upholds the Law and Order reforms made by the Victorian Government.
Petition:
We, the undersigned, support the Victorian State Government who have passed new laws that will ensure all high risk sex offenders released in Victoria (with adult and child victims) will be supervised post-sentence with limitations on where they live and requirements such as constant electronic monitoring.

We, the undersigned "do not" demand the Victorian State Government to change any laws where a judge or magistrate can suppress the identity of a serious sex offender because we believe such identification may also identify a victim and may lead to gangs of vigilantes taking the law into their own hands.
