Exclusions

In some cases an individual will not have a right to withhold information about a conviction that otherwise meets the requirements to be spent.
Similarly, some persons and authorities are permitted to request, disclose and take information on spent convictions into account in limited circumstances.
The most important exclusion from the Scheme enables a person who is assessing an individual’s suitability to work with children to obtain, disclose and use information about that individual’s spent conviction.
Other important exclusions relate to:

• law enforcement agencies for the purpose of:
  • making decisions in relation to prosecution or sentencing matters
  • assessing prospective employees and consultants
  • making certain disclosures to another law enforcement agency
• AUSTRAC and intelligence or security agencies, for the purpose of assessing prospective employees and consultants
• courts or tribunals making decisions, including sentencing decisions
• a person who makes a decision under the Australian Citizenship Act 2007 or the Migration Act 1958.[4]
