VICTIMS OF CRIME ACT 1994 - SECT 18

Justice agencies must comply with victims rights

    (1)     A justice agency must, when engaging with a victim, comply with all victims rights that apply to the victim.

    (2)     If complying with a particular right would support a victim, despite the right not applying to the victim, a justice agency should, as far as practicable, comply with the right in relation to the victim.

    (3)     In considering whether complying with a right would support a victim, the justice agency should have regard to the individual needs of the victim and their circumstances.
