Pre-Check Service

Producers are encouraged to discuss the content of a commercial at concept or script/storyboard stages of production to obtain an indication of the likely classification and to be directed to any content requirements.

This service is free-of-charge and is highly recommended. Any such discussions will be kept strictly confidential.

How to apply for a Pre-Check

1. 

Forward your scripts/storyboards to CAD via email to cad@freetv.com.au or via fax to (02) 9969 8147. This service can also be used for review of off-line edits, prior to finalising a TVC. 

2. 

Please be sure to mark your material, “For Pre-Check Comments”. 

3. 

If your media schedule dictates that the ad attain a certain classification, please detail this when forwarding the material for a Pre-check.  


CAD Numbers are only issued on completed commercials. CAD cannot issue a CAD Number or provide final classification advice until a commercial is submitted in its final form, with the necessary paperwork.
 
Please allow five (5) working days for CAD to review and provide comments/feedback.
