teecee,
The administration of certain drugs can be indictable under the 'Crimes Act', it depends upon their scheduling (S) rating.
This is not a discussion about 'rules in sport' but more about criminal liability under the Crimes Act.
The standard of proof required is not one judged by the sporting judiciary but by the Public Prosecutions Office.
Yes the DPP would prosecute the case at no cost to the relevant sporting body.
"Quick Resolutions' We have plenty of these and it doesn't seem to act as a deterrent, shown by the number of repeat offenders.
If the process started whereby offenders under the 'Crimes Act' previously outlined were prosecuted in the relevant State Courts, what might be the ensuing rate of violation of the regulations?
A significant drop of cases that required investigation by the relevant sporting bodies, I think would be an odds on bet.
