Member Protection Information Officers:

A Member Protection Information Officer (MPIO) is responsible for providing information about a person’s rights, responsibilities and options to an individual making a complaint or raising a concern. They can also provide information and advice to sport administrators and complaint handlers with regard to the Member Protection Policy of that sport. MPIOs are generally impartial; they do not mediate or investigate complaints. They may reside in a club, the state association or a National
Sporting Organisation (NSO). They can also be freelance (not linked directly to sport).

Hockey ACT is fortunate enough to have two Member Protection Information Officers:

Kate McCallum	Kathy Mumberson
