You need to tape them in order to play back to yourself later so that you realise that you are not imagining what they said.


Yes I have been told by a lawyer you cant tape the conversation at the other end, or u must ask them permission to tape the conversation. But in all honestly you have to because they change the conversation to suit them, when making their affidavits. My partner had a conversation taped with someone, and this person said, "Get out of Townsville, and never come back".....Uncanny, thats what he did, and they are still following him......


You can tape any conversation you have with a CSO, but they do have the right to refuse just as you have the right to refuse them taping you. They legally can't make you not tape the conversation, but if they refuse and you continue to tape they can end the conversation just as you have the right to do. I feel that if they have nothing to hide then there shouldn't be a problem with them allowing you to tape the conversation. If they won't let you tape it, bring someone in with you who can take notes for you. CSO's take notes, why can't you!


As I hate Gov said many times depending on the situation and who they're dealing with if you bring a person with you that knows the law or better still knows the act, they will not allow that person at the interview.
Another thing that the lot of you have forgotten about is they use all this rubbish in the name to protect the identity of the child but what happens when the child is 18 and becomes an adult?.
