- The Crisafulli Government is delivering most support for victims by launching a new portal to deliver automatic court case updates for victims of serious crime.
- The portal is now accessible and linked to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions' case management system to ensure accurate updates.
- Portal delivers on the Crisafulli Government's key election commitment to remove the burden on victims to seek out information about their cases, after they were ignored during Labor's decade of decline.
- The Crisafulli Government is delivering a fresh start and making Queensland safer.
The Crisafulli Government is delivering more rights and better support for victims of serious crimes, who can now access current updates about their cases as justice progresses through a new victims' portal.
The portal, developed by the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions, is one way the Crisafulli Government is helping restore safety where you live and prioritising victims over offenders unlike the former Labor Government.
During Labor's decade of decline, victims were left in the dark and forced to navigate through the justice system without access to court proceedings and updates.
Victims of serious crimes being prosecuted by the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions can register to access the new system, which is available 24/7 to securely access current information as their matter progresses through the justice system, including general information, upcoming court events, dates, times, and court outcomes.
A new and improved victim focused Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions website has also been launched to provide overall access to general information to support a victim and their family through the prosecution process.
The launch of the portal delivers on a key election commitment of the Crisafulli Government, which is delivering a fresh start after Labor put the rights of offenders over the rights of victims during their decade of decline.
Attorney-General and Minister for Justice and Minister for Integrity Deb Frecklington said the Crisafulli Government was delivering the fresh start Queenslanders voted for, exactly as promised.
"We're making it easier for victims to receive information about their cases, just like we said we would before the election," the Attorney-General said.
"Along with the new website, the portal adds to existing support available to victims of serious crimes to ensure they are informed about the progress of prosecutions.
"We are prioritising victims by giving them greater flexibility and choice in receiving information relating to them."
The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions' new website is available at odpp.qld.gov.au
Victims with current matters with the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions can register and login to the portal through their assigned victim liaison officer or the extended hours contact centre on 1800 845 110, available 7am–8pm, Monday to Friday.
Secure, initial registration to the portal is via a link provided by the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions victim liaison service and authenticated via "Tell Us Once" using the Queensland Digital Identity (QDI) verification system or myID.
