Workers’ Compensation and Rehabilitation Act 2003

An investigator may, and if directed by the Regulator must, make interim reports about a special investigation to the Regulator.

On the completion or termination of the investigation, the investigator must report to the Regulator the investigator’s opinion on the matters under investigation, together with the facts on which the opinion is based.

A copy of a final report must, and a copy of the whole or part of an interim report may, be given by the Regulator to the investigated person that is the subject of the report.

However, the Regulator is not bound to give an investigated person a copy of a report, or a part of the report, if the Regulator considers it would not be appropriate to disclose the report, or part of the report, to the person that is the subject of the report.

The Regulator may publish on its website and any other place the Regulator considers appropriate the whole or a part of a report only if—

the investigated person the subject of the report is convicted of an offence against chapter 6B; and

the Regulator considers publishing the report or part of the report is in the public interest.

If a report given to the Regulator is accompanied by a record of an examination made under section 532V, the Regulator may give a copy of the record to any person, and on the conditions, the Regulator considers appropriate.
