What Justice Pty Ltd does

Justice Pty Ltd, operating as the Department of Justice of the Government of Western Australia, is a statutory state government department headquartered in Perth that administers the Western Australian justice system. It provides court and tribunal services, corrective services (prisons and detention), legal services to government, civil registry services (births, deaths and marriages), fines enforcement, victim support through the Commissioner for Victims of Crime, advocacy for adults with decision-making disabilities via the Office of the Public Advocate, legislative drafting through the Parliamentary Counsel's Office, and trust and estate administration through the Public Trustee. The department employs between 5,001 and 10,000 staff and operates across metropolitan Perth, regional Western Australia, and online.

The department's technology stack comprises government enterprise IT systems including online self-service portals for fines payment and payment plans via the Fines Enforcement Registry, a prisoner information search facility, licence suspension checks, document witnessing requests, and family history searches. A dedicated DoJ Mobile App and MediaHub platform support service access and public communications. Distribution occurs through online self-service, a telephone contact centre, physical court and correctional facilities across the state, and the DoJ Mobile App. Recent operational signals include ongoing construction of a new youth detention facility in Canning Vale and a July 2026 strategic partnership with Dress for Success at Bandyup Women's Prison.

The department does not operate a commercial revenue model. Funding flows through Western Australian Government annual appropriations, supplemented by cost-recovery transaction fees from fines enforcement, registry services (birth, death, and marriage certificates), and funds recovered through criminal property confiscation distributed to community initiatives. Service delivery is non-discretionary by law, making the department a statutory monopoly with no competing providers.
