This 74-page demand analysis, prepared by SGS Economics and Planning for the Attorney-General's Department in December 2022, assesses the need for expanded federal court infrastructure in South West Sydney through a Campbelltown Community and Justice Precinct. The report examines current federal court capacity, projects future filing demand across Greater Sydney and Wollongong catchment areas, and models courtroom supply requirements. It analyses trends in NSW federal court filings, COVID-19 impacts on court operations, case clearance rates, and backlogs. Beyond courtroom needs, the analysis extends to support services including general legal support, family services, and the Lighthouse Project. Significant redactions under sections 47B(a) and 47B(b) of the *Freedom of Information Act 1982* (likely legal professional privilege or Cabinet-in-confidence material) appear in the summary and support services sections. The document represents policy planning work rather than litigation advice or legislative assessment.
