Referring your information

The law says that, most of the time, the New South Wales Police Force or the NSW Crime Commission should manage complaints made against them. This makes the Police and the Crime Commission take responsibility for the actions of their officers.

We review the way in which Police or Crime Commission handle these complaints. We can also require the Police or Crime Commission to investigate complaints. We can also investigate a complaint ourself if that is appropriate.

You can find out more about our role here.

This means we refer most complaints to the Police or Crime Commission.

Do you agree that we can give the information you’ve given us to the NSW Police or the NSW Crime Commission?

If you don’t want us to refer your information (if you don’t agree) you can tick 'No' in question 20.

But this may mean that we can’t take any action on your information.

20. Do you allow us to refer your information to another agency if they would be more suitable to help you?YesNo
