Corrective Services NSW

Thematic review

Some text can be added here i.e. What is Thematic review - I have added some for example only

The Aboriginal Deaths in CSNSW Custody Thematic Review will carefully consider the deaths of Aboriginal people in the custody of Corrective Services NSW (CSNSW) since 2010.

The Review will be guided by an external reference group including many Aboriginal experts with considerable relevant experience, chaired by Professor James Ward.

The Review will make recommendations on how CSNSW can reduce deaths in custody and improve the experience of Aboriginal people in custody, in a report to the Minister for Corrections.
