In Australia, the principle of open justice plays a key role in ensuring that justice is not only done but seen to be done. Public access to court proceedings reinforces confidence in the judicial system's fairness.

Yet, there are cases where transparency could compromise justice, prompting courts to issue suppression orders. These orders ensure sensitive information is protected while maintaining the integrity and fairness of the legal process.

Every effort has been made to comply with non-publication (suppression) orders or statutory provisions prohibiting publication that may apply to this information.
