ONE Annual Report final.indd 1 8/09/11 4:45 PM Victoria’s Prosecution Service The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), the Office of Public Prosecutions (OPP) under the direction of the Solicitor for Public Prosecutions (SPP), and the Crown Prosecutors’ Chambers work together to prosecute serious crime on behalf of the people of Victoria. They are each independent of government and are appointed by the Governor in Council. The DPP and SPP each report directly to the Attorney-General.

THREE Annual Report final.indd 3 8/09/11 4:45 PM Report of the Director of Public Prosecutions The data in the Offi ce of Public Prosecutions (OPP) annual report underscores the extraordinary effectiveness and effi ciency of the OPP during the past year. Although no prosecution agency should be driven by statistical outcomes, it is pleasing to see that, contrary to some uninformed and mendacious comments, the quality of work by the OPP was not affected by extraneous events. The hard-working staff of the Offi ce did not allow themselves to be distracted from performing their important work on behalf of the people of Victoria and I thank them for their dedication. Guilty outcomes as a percentage of matter completions, guilty pleas as a percentage of matter completions, the number of victim and witness referrals and consultations, and the number of days in court by Crown Prosecutors are all above average. Indeed some are at all-time highs. Victoria’s prosecution service remains one of the most professional, committed and effective such agencies in Australia. Its contribution to the maintenance of law and order in society and the safety of all Victorians should be acknowledged. It remains a great pity that the conditions in which the staff are required to work are of such a poor standard.

Feature articles: on Kerry Greenwood by Kylie Fox; on Shadow by David Greagg; on cross-genre writing by Marianne de Pierres; and on history repeating by Lindy Cameron. Genre Fiction Egypt in the 18th Dynasty is peaceful and prosperous under the dual reign of father and son pharaohs Amenhotep III and IV, until the son begins to dream terrifying dreams. Ptah-hotep, a peasant boy studying to be a scribe, wants to live a simple life in a Nile hut with his lover Kheperren and their dog Wolf, but the younger pharaoh appoints him as his Great Royal Scribe. Surrounded by envious rivals, how long will Ptah-hotep survive? Child-princess Mutnodjme sees her beautiful sister Nefertiti married off to the impotent Amenhotep IV. As she must still bear royal children, a shocking plan is devised. Kheperren leaves to serve as scribe to the daring teenage General Horemheb. But, while the shrinking Egyptian army guards the Land of the Nile from enemies on every border, a far greater menace impends. For, not content with his own devotion to one god alone, the young newly-renamed Akhnaten intends to suppress the worship of all other gods in the Black Land. His horrified court soon realise that the Pharaoh is not merely deformed, but irretrievably mad; and that the biggest danger to the Empire is in the royal palace itself.

First, in November 2010 there was a change in the office of Attorney-General. The previous Attorney-General, the Honourable Rob Hulls MP, was succeeded by the Honourable Robert Clark MP. I pay tribute to the support of the Foundation provided over more than a decade by Mr Hulls. The Foundation acknowledges it and warmly wishes Mr Hulls well. I acknowledge and welcome the support to and interest in the Foundation provided by Mr Clark, shown with readiness since his accession to office. I look forward to working with Mr Clark hereafter and warmly wish him well in the office of Attorney-General. Second, in June 2011, the Victoria Law Foundation Act 2011 came into operation. Essentially it amended the constitution and membership of the Foundation by providing that the Chairperson of the Foundation shall be the Chief Justice or her nominee, and the Foundation shall consist of six members (previously not less than six and not more than eight members).
