Fiskville Redress Document Request Form

You are here:

CFA and the Department of Justice and Community Safety (DJCS) have worked together to streamline access to information to support your application for the Fiskville Redress Scheme (FRS). As such you do not need to separately request supporting documentation from CFA to show your involvement with Fiskville. Once you submit your application, the FRS team will make contact and talk with you about your time at Fiskville and what (if any) documentation you already have to support your submission. If they need additional information, they will ask you to sign an authority which will give them permission to ask us for what ever information they need to support your application. The authority will be provided to us, to show that you also give us permission to provide that documentation to them.

Due to this streamlined process, you no longer need to request information direct from CFA.

However, if you still wish to obtain documentation, for your own files, you can request that through the following form. Requests for access to supporting documentation regarding your attendance, work, training or living at Fiskville, although being processed by the FOI & Privacy Unit, will have no fees incurred relating to location and provision of the documents.

Please note, however, if you choose to request access to documents beyond Fiskville related matters (depending upon the number of documents located) fees for copying of those pages may apply.
