Interpreter feedback form on experiences in courts and tribunals

If you are an interpreter who has completed an assignment in a court/tribunal anywhere in Australia, please use the form below to report about your experience.

Your information is anonymous and kept confidential. There is an option at the end to leave your contact details if you wish to be contacted by the Interpreter Feedback on RNS Implementation Committee, but this is optional.

You should fill out one form per assignment if, in your opinion, there was something worth reporting about the assignment by reference to the RNS. 

. . .

The Recommended National Standards for Working with Interpreters in Courts and Tribunals (the RNS) provides for interpreters to have a mechanism to give feedback after a court/tribunal assignment (see Optimal Standard No.4).

AUSIT invites interpreters working in court and/or tribunals around Australia – whether they are AUSIT members or not – to provide feedback. The data collected will help ascertain the extent of implementation of the RNS. 

You can read AUSIT’s reports on the feedback it has received to date below. Further reports will be uploaded as they are completed.

You can also fill out an Interpreter Feedback Form below. Thank you in advance!

Submission form

for court interpreters to report incidents or issues that occur in court interpreting assignments.

Purpose and function of this information submission form.

This form enables you to report issues or problems that you encounter in the course of court interpreting assignments. These issues and problems will be collected by AUSIT to report to the JCCD (the Judicial Council on Cultural Diversity) to monitor the implementation of the Recommended National Standards.
