Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse
The Royal Commission has released its first Issues Paper on the Working with Children Check and is seeking submissions from interested individuals and government and non-government organisations by 12 August 2013.
The Royal Commission will be releasing Issues Papers on a range of topics that are relevant to the work of the Royal Commission. The topics of future Issues Papers will shortly be published to this website.
Submissions will be made public unless the person making the submission expressly requests (or the Royal Commission decides) that the particular submission is not made public. The Royal Commission will usually make its decision for reasons associated with fairness.
Submissions should be made, preferably electronically, to solicitor@childabuseroyalcommission.gov.au, otherwise in writing to GPO Box 5283, Sydney NSW 2001.
