Changes to Legal Aid NSW Contributions Policy

Tue Jul 02 2019

The Legal Aid NSW Board approved a suite of changes to the Contributions Policy and apply to applications determined on or after 1 July 2019. The changes include removing the Unpaid Contributions Test, broadening the Exceptional Circumstances Test to waive initial contributions, and waiving the initial $75 where a client in custody has criminal proceedings. Please see the Policy Bulletin 2019 No. 9 for more details, or complete the online training module (0.5 CDP) by logging into our Learning Management System and search for "Contributions Policy".
