SIA / NIF Complaints, Disputes & Discipline Policy Update

The jurisdiction of Sport Integrity Australia has been changed following a review after their first year of operation. This will have a significant impact on the way that integrity-related matters are dealt with at a club & state level.

Rowing WA is working closely with Rowing Australia, the other States & Sport Integrity Australia to finalise a revised set of NIF policies ASAP & additional training for clubs to assist in the re-education & roll-out of these new policies.

Rowing WA will be discussing the NIF at the next Special General Meeting on 30.05.2023 where we hope to be able to give everyone another update.

Download the fact sheet with additional information related to this jurisdictional matter & the changes that are occurring to the National Integrity Framework (NIF).
