A 15-year-old boy granted bail in Queensland was temporarily banned from travelling as a passenger in any car without a youth justice worker present, amid concerns about restrictive bail conditions.

By May 25, 169 children had already been charged with the new breach of bail offence, police said this week. Of the group, 112 were Indigenous. Six of the youngest, aged 11, were charged with the offence a combined 30 times.

In another case, children were ordered to stay at a home where an adult was accused of being abusive.Hayes said there had also been an increase in the use of 24-hour curfews, where a child must not leave a property except to attend bail support. In a statement, police said stopping a child from riding in any car without a youth justice worker was not a bail condition that was “regularly sought by police”.
