  • #95 1 - Link to the licence There is no link to the CC BY-NC-SA licence. Providing a direct link to, for e.g., http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/au/ means that the licence terms are just one click away. I note that this comment would also apply to your social media policy at http://www.justice.vic.gov.au/home/about+us/our+values+and+behaviours/social+media+policy/ - your reference to the CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 unported licence does not have a link to the licence. I would also note that the Australian version of the licence, as opposed to the unported licence, would be more suitable for an Australian department or agency as it is drafted in accordance with Australian law. 2 - Ability to Download and Visual only licensed under CC It appears from your licensing statement that only the visual aspects of the video are CC licensed. The video, however, appears to be on YouTube only. The YouTube platform does not readily allow downloads, which makes it difficult for someone who wishes to use the visual aspects of the video in accordance with the licence. Perhaps you could provide a download link to the video (minus the audio) and license this file under CC.
