What is a Member Protection Information Officer or MPIO?
It is recommended that each State Sporting Association has an MPIO, who should be the first point of call for any enquiries, concerns or complaints about harassment, discrimination and abuse. They should provide confidential information and moral support to any person with a concern, or who is alleging harassment. Clubs are also recommended to have a contact person or child-safe officer to enable any concerns at a club to be communicated. The club based MPIO or child-safe officer can work closely with the State level MPIO to work through any issues.
