The Magistrates Court (Coronial Division) publishes a small but important amount of records of investigations and findings.
The decision to make these findings available has been made by the Chief Magistrate, or their delegate, or the coroner presiding over the particular investigation, under Coroners Rules 2006.
Publishing a finding is decided on an individual basis, but the coroner may take into account a number of factors:
- the work of the courts being available to public scrutiny
- the death prevention role of the coroner
- family privacy
- sensitivity of the findings
- possible harm from making an investigation publically available
In general, authorised findings for publication will include:
- all public inquest findings
- motor vehicle crashes
- long-term missing persons cases
- homicides after the criminal process has been completed
- any other death which has been reasonably widely reported in the news media for clarification of the factual findings
- any death where health and safety recommendations can result in improvements and death prevention (for example, child protection systems issues, deaths in medical settings with recommendations for improvement)
- any other matter which the coroner believes is in the public interest
