The Attorney-General’s Department has been worked in association with the Australian Institute of Judicial Administration to produce guidelines for practitioners on the Commonwealth Criminal Code.

The Criminal Code has been progressively applied to Commonwealth offences since 1997 and, subject to a short delay with a handful of offences, applied to all Commonwealth offences from 15 December 2001.
