The statement is true to the best of my knowledge and belief.\nSignature:\nName:\nDate: \u000f\nTips when writing your Witness Statement\nRemember to number each paragraph in your Witness Statement.  Try to put one fact in each numbered paragraph.  Start by saying who you are, your occupation, your address (it can be your work address) and what your involvement in the case is.\nSet out the things that you know, in chronological order.  You should include things that you saw, heard or did.\nInclude relevant dates, or if you are not sure about when something happened, you can give a date range or say “on or about” a date.\nIf you want to write down what someone said to you or things you said to someone else, use quotation marks.  If you cannot remember exactly what was said but you remember the general idea of what was said, you can say he/she said words to the effect “..........”.\nWhenever possible, attach a document that is evidence of what you say. An example of a document you may attach to your Witness Statement is a document that you prepared and sent or a document you received, read and acted on.\nWhen you talk about a document in a Witness Statement, you should attach a copy of that document to the end of the statement. You should label the document with a letter or number, such as “A”, “B, “C” etc or “1”, “2”, “3” etc so you can easily refer to the document in your statement, for example, [exhibit reference/page number].\nMake sure you sign and date your Witness Statement.\nRemember, you may need Witness Statements from different people to prove different facts in your case.\nExample Witness Statement\nMy name is Jack Sands and my address is 19 Aster Street in Cannon Hill, in Queensland.  I am the applicant in these proceedings.\nOn 5 July 2015 I went to Rings of Australia at 1/747 Lytton Road, in Murarrie to get a wedding anniversary present for my wife, Sally Sands.\nI spoke to a sales assistant who had a name badge that said “Sam”.\nSam showed me a gold necklace with ruby stones.  I said words to the effect, “Are these real rubies set in this necklace?”\nSam said “I will go and check”.  He went out the back door and came back about 5 minutes later.  He then said words to the effect “they are real rubies, and I can give you a good deal today”.  He also handed me a brochure with details about the necklace, which is attached and marked “A”.\nWe then negotiated a price and settled on an amount of $2,500, with the necklace to be put on layby.  I paid a deposit of $1,000, in cash.  I was given a receipt.  Attached and marked “B” is a copy of my receipt.\nA day before my wedding anniversary, on 24 July 2015, I went to pick up the necklace and pay the remaining $1,500.\nThe sales assistant Sam, said words to the effect “We have no record of your layby.”\nI showed my receipt and I said to Sam words to the effect “you remember me, you gave me a good deal?”  Sam could not find the layby.  I could not see a necklace the same as or like it displayed in the store.\nI then asked to speak to a Manager, but I was told that the Manager was not at work that day.  I left the store.\nI have since written to Rings of Australia on 30 July 2015 to seek a refund of my deposit, the letter is attached and marked “”C”.\nThe Manager, Fred Mills, telephoned me on or about 7 August 2015.  He said words to the effect “We could not locate your layby. I would never have authorised the sale of that necklace for $2,500.”\nI said “What do you mean? I want my deposit back.”  The call ended shortly after that.\nI have not had any other comm","cbCairjWRBpa7toS","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairjWRBpa7toS","docx",118993,"English","# QCAT Witness Statement - Key Fields\n## Witness details\n## Statement of evidence\n## Signature and date\n# Tips for Writing\n## Numbered paragraphs and facts\n## Chronological account and dates\n## Quoting statements and describing recall\n## Attaching and labeling exhibits\n## Signing and dating\n# Example Witness Statement\n## Example narrative and exhibits","[{\"question\":\"What personal details must be completed in the QCAT witness statement template?\",\"answer\":\"The template requires the witness’s name and contact details, occupation/employer, address, and preferred/alternate phone numbers and email.
