Background
The Ashley Youth Detention Centre is a youth detention centre outside Deloraine, Tasmania, Australia. It is the only such centre in Tasmania and has a capacity of 51 beds for minors – aged from 10 to 18 years – convicted of crimes, or on pre-trial remand. In September 2021, in response to ongoing complaints of sexual and physical abuse at the facility, the Premier of Tasmania announced that the centre would be replaced within three years. A commission of inquiry into child sexual abuse in Tasmanian institutions, which examined allegations of child maltreatment at the centre, began in October 2021. The commission published its report in September 2023.
