18697 (2026). Hon Ginny Andersen to the Minister of Police: Further to WPQ 17192 (2026); Does the Minister expect to set a timeline for the Government to appoint an Inspector-General of Police with “significantly more invasive” powers to investigate alleged misconduct?

Hon Mark Mitchell: I expect the work to establish an Inspector-General of Police to be completed thoroughly. The Minister of Justice is leading this work.
