Students and researchers

The Department is currently not considering any new external research applications.

Towards the end of August/early September 2013, the Department anticipates that it will be in a position to publish its research priorities for 2014–2016.  These priorities will link in with the Department’s strategic directions, planning, resourcing and service delivery. Whilst the priorities will not be exclusive, they will act as a guide for researchers who may wish to undertake research projects with the Department.

Following the publication of its research priorities, it is the Department’s intention to re-commence consideration of external research applications.  As a guide, it is anticipated that this will occur in November 2013.  The exact date will be advised at the time of publication of the Department’s research priorities.

Inquiries relating to any information provided on this site can be directed to Research and Evaluation Committee (REC) by email to REC@justice.wa.gov.au.
