Forms to appoint a nominee
If you need or would like support speaking with the Scheme or responding to requests from the Scheme on your behalf, you can appoint someone you know and trust, or a Redress Support Service as your nominee.
Responding to an outcome or asking for a review
You need to use this form if you decide to request a review of your redress outcome.
By lodging the Application for Review of Determination form, you understand this may involve the Scheme consulting with participating institutions.
Declining an offer
You can decline an offer by filling in and returning to the National Redress Scheme, the ‘Declining the offer of redress form’, or you can do nothing.
Note: If you decline your offer, you cannot later ask for a review or make another application for redress.
