CrimTrac

The CrimTrac Agency was established in July 2000 to facilitate data and information sharing within the Australian policing environment via new and existing information systems. The four initial systems were the National Criminal Investigation DNA Database (NCIDD), the National Automated Fingerprint Identification System (NAFIS), the National Police Reference System (NPRS) and the Australian National Child Offender Register (ANCOR). Other systems provide access to information associated with vehicles and firearm, a number-to-name-search telephone directory functions and criminal history record checking services.
