Inspector-General of the Australian Defence Force

The Inspector-General of the Australian Defence Force (IGADF) is appointed by the Australian Government to oversee the quality and fairness of Australia’s military justice system. It is our job to promote trust and justice in the ADF and to ensure all defence personnel have access to a fair and impartial military justice system. The Inspector-General’s Office, which includes a team of legal, para-legal and support professionals, is an independent statutory body. The Inspector-General reports to the Minister for Defence and is independent of the Australian Defence Force’s chain-of-command.
