The NSW Parliament changes an indictable offence to a summary offence - HSC - SSCE Legal Studies - Question 17 - 2013 - Paper 1

In the context of a summary offence, the right that is no longer guaranteed is (D) The right to be judged by peers.

Explanation

Summary offences are less serious than indictable offences and are typically dealt with in lower courts. Defendants charged with summary offences usually do not have the right to a jury trial; instead, these cases are decided by a magistrate. This contrasts with indictable offences, where the defendant is entitled to a trial by jury, reflecting the right to be judged by peers.
