We present and discuss the findings of a qualitative study of how police utilised s 4A of the Summary Offences Act 1988 (NSW) in three Sydney Local Area Commands during 2016. We identify the factors most commonly associated with a police decision to characterise a person’s language as criminally offensive and take action, either by laying a criminal charge or issuing a penalty notice. Offensive language laws are typically justified as a necessary device for ensuring that members of the community are protected from being caused ‘offence’ as a result of the use of inappropriate language in public places.
