Developing a Regulatory Framework for Mass DNA Screenings: A comparative study of public requests by crime investigators for bodily samples

拟议研究的目的是设计一个原则模型，以规范澳大利亚警方进行大规模DNA筛查的表现。一个吗?大规模DNA筛查？是刑事调查人员对身体样本的公开呼吁，以测试捐赠者是否与某一未侦破的犯罪有关。最近的法律改革调查已经认识到，管理大规模DNA筛查的各种法律制度在许多方面是不充分的。该研究将通过对澳大利亚和比较司法管辖区的法律和最近实践的原则性考虑，制定一个适合在所有澳大利亚司法管辖区实施的新的监管框架。

The aim of the proposed study is to devise a principled model for regulating the performance of mass DNA screenings by Australian police. A ?mass DNA screening? is a public appeal by criminal investigators for bodily samples in order to test whether donors can be linked to a particular unsolved crime. Recent law reform inquires have recognised that the various legal regimes governing mass DNA screenings are inadequate in many respects. The study will develop a new regulatory framework suitable for implementation in all Australian jurisdictions through a principled consideration of laws and recent practice in Australian and comparative jurisdictions.
