In New South Wales (NSW), Australia, the criminal history sections refer to the different categories of criminal history information that are recorded and stored by the NSW Police Force. There are four main criminal history sections:

Section 10: This section relates to criminal charges that have been dismissed or withdrawn. It includes information about any conditions that were imposed as part of the dismissal or withdrawal.

Section 14: This section relates to spent convictions, which are certain minor criminal convictions that do not have to be disclosed after a certain period of time has passed. Spent convictions do not show up on a standard criminal record check.

Section 18: This section relates to current criminal charges, which have not yet been dealt with by a court. It includes details about the nature of the charge and the court date.

Section 23: This section relates to all convictions and findings of guilt, including those that have been dealt with in court and those that have resulted in a caution, warning, or infringement notice.

Overall, the criminal history sections in NSW provide a record of an individual’s criminal history and are used by law enforcement agencies to assess a person’s suitability for various roles, such as employment in sensitive positions or obtaining certain licenses or permits.
