CSNSW Victims Register

The Corrective Services NSW (CSNSW) Victims Register is for victim-survivors of adult offenders. It can provide information about offenders including: 

• location and classification in custody
• sentence details
• eligibility for pre-release leave and parole
• a decision to revoke parole
• escape from custody
• death in custody or the community

Victim-survivors may be eligible to receive information, if the offender is serving a NSW custodial sentence. That means a court decided the offender is guilty and the offender is:

• in prison
• on parole in the community
• on an intensive correction order for a personal violence offence in the community
• on a detention or supervision order issued by the Supreme Court

The CSNSW Victims Register can also support victim-survivors to voice their concerns if the State Parole Authority considers the offender for parole.

Who can apply?

• the direct victim of the offence; or
• a family representative of a direct victim who died from the crime; or 
• the direct victim’s primary caregiver (if the victim is currently under 18 years or has a legal incapacity such as a disability); or 
• a nominee of the direct victim 

If none of the above apply to you and you can show us that your connection to the offender places you at risk, you may still be eligible to apply. Please contact us to discuss your situation. 

What do you need to apply?

You will need the following information to apply:

• the offender’s first name, surname
• offence details (date, location and nature of the offence)
• the police event number
• court details (court case number, date and location)
• investigating officer/station
• your proof of identification
