Sources: 2. Developments: 2. Tasmania is considering new legislative measures to increase public safety through the implementation of offender registries. Initial proposals focused on expanding a child sex offender register similar to Queensland’s Daniel’s Law. This scheme would allow parents to inquire with police about an individual’s status on the register and grant law enforcement broader powers to monitor offenders. While supporters argue the measure enhances community cooperation, some survivor-support services have expressed concerns regarding the effectiveness of public disclosure and the potential for shifting responsibility onto parents. Subsequent legislative developments have expanded the scope to include domestic violence. Proposed laws aim to curb serial domestic violence by establishing a public register of declared offenders. Under these rules, offenders would be required to notify police of new romantic relationships or updates on social media and dating apps. The draft legislation also includes mandatory minimum six-month prison sentences for subsequent serious family violence offences, with the registry accounting for conviction histories from across Australia. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-20: Tasmania to introduce new domestic violence laws and offender registry Tasmania is drafting laws to place serial domestic violence offenders on a public register and require them to notify police of new relationships, while advocates urge stricter alcohol delivery limits. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/tasmania-to-introduce-new-domestic-violence-laws-and-offender-registry ### 2026-08-03: Tasmania Considers Expanding Daniel's Law Child Sex Offender Register Denise and Bruce Morcombe push Tasmania to adopt Daniel's Law, a child sex offender register, amid support for safety and opposition from survivor groups over its effectiveness and legal risks. 4 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/tasmania-considers-expanding-daniels-law-child-sex-offender-register --- Cite as: Tasmania offender registry legislative proposals.
