Local Operating Procedure (LOPs)

All public prisons have their own individual Local Operating Procedure (LOPs). The LOPs will contain the specific procedures for that prison.

LOPs are guided by the Deputy Commissioner’s Instructions.

LOPs are not available on the Corrections Victoria website. To view them you will need to make a direct request to your prison or use your prison library.
