Police Integrity Commission
The Police Integrity Commission, was a statutory corporation of the New South Wales Government, responsible for the prevention, detection, and investigation of alleged serious misconduct in the Police Force in the state of New South Wales, Australia. The mission of the commission was to be an effective agent in the reduction of serious police misconduct. On 1 July 2017, the Police Integrity Commission was abolished and replaced by the Law Enforcement Conduct Commission.
The commission was established on 1 July 1996 pursuant to the Police Integrity Act 1996 (NSW) following the Wood Royal Commission into the New South Wales Police Service.
The commission was led by a Commissioner. The Commission initially reported to the Minister for Police and Emergency Services, back then it reported to the Premier of New South Wales. An independent Inspector of the Police Integrity Commission provided oversight of the operational functions of the commission.
Prior to the commission's establishment, matters of police integrity were dealt with by the Police Tribunal of New South Wales. The commission was set up following a recommendation by the Royal Commission into the New South Wales Police Service. That recommendation, among others, led to a radical transformation of the police service in New South Wales. The commission was the successor to the Royal Commission, although the commission's powers and duties were far more extensive than those granted to the Royal Commission.
The Commission looked into serious police misconduct and could refuse to investigate. There was no other body or Commission that looked into police misconduct except for the NSW Ombudsman. However, the Ombudsman, as a matter of procedure, would refer any complaints made about police or unsatisfactory police investigations back to the area command or the investigating officer.
On 26 November 2015 Police Minister Troy Grant announced that the PIC would be replaced by the Law Enforcement Conduct Commission. On 8 November 2016 legislation was passed by the NSW Parliament to establish the commission.
The commission was established under the Police Integrity Act 1996 (NSW). The act set out the principal functions of the commission. They included:
The Commission employed a variety of experienced staff including lawyers, accountants, police, investigators and analysts. Where police officers were employed, they were employed from overseas or interstate.
