CDPP Writing Style Guide

The CDPP Writing Style Guide is a tool for staff of the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (Cth) (CDPP). External counsel briefed by the CDPP may also be assisted by this guide and are encouraged to apply it as appropriate. It aims to ensure professionalism and consistency in CDPP written communication, whether internal or external, by establishing a style for writing, punctuation and referencing. It applies to any written internal or external communication prepared in the course of the CDPP’s work, including the legal practice and the Enabling Services Group.
