Commissioner for Police Service Reviews
Role / OfficeReferenced in 2 bills
Crime and Corruption and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2018
This bill strengthens Queensland's anti-corruption framework by widening the definition of 'corrupt conduct' and giving the Crime and Corruption Commission broader investigative powers. It also implements recommendations from two parliamentary committee reviews to improve how the Commission operates, including better disciplinary processes for public sector employees who move between agencies and new procedural fairness protections for people named in Commission reports.
Police Service Administration (Discipline Reform) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2019
This bill overhauls the Queensland Police Service discipline system, which had remained largely unchanged since 1990. It introduces faster complaint resolution processes, modernised sanctions that focus on rehabilitation alongside punishment, expanded oversight by the Crime and Corruption Commission, and formalises professional development strategies as responses to officer misconduct.
