The Commission usually deals with cases in which the convicted person has already appealed. Recently, the Commission has had more people applying to it before they have appealed. We will be producing additional guidance on the appeals process, including information on key contacts at stakeholder organisations who can assist, and this will be available here soon.
You can find out more about the application process below.

Our job is to review your case independently and make a referral if we consider there are grounds for it to be referred. We do not act as your lawyer, but we are independent from the police and the courts.
