The National Deaths in Custody Program (NDICP) has monitored the extent and nature of deaths that occurred in prison, police custody and youth detention since 1980. The NDICP was established at the Australian Institute of Criminology in 1992 in response to recommendation 41 by the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody. The NDICP is based on death notifications from state and territory police services, correctional departments and youth justice agencies and coronial data from the National Coronial Information System.
