Episode 5: Mermaids, Quotas and the First Women Judges on the Industrial Court

  • Summary

  • Before women could formally practise as lawyers, let alone sit as magistrates or judges, two women were appointed as judges in the Industrial Court. In this episode, Professor Erika Rackley discusses how this happened, as well as women’s representation on our courts and what - if anything - this has to do with Hans Christian Andersen’s 'Little Mermaid'.
