Public Accounts Committee

2012 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General
Chapter 7 - Management of Fixed Charge Notice System

12:10 pm

Mr. Martin Callinan:

We have incorporated all of the recommendations, including some from the assistant commissioner and some from the professional standards unit, into our draft guideline policy document. That is resting with the Director of Public Prosecutions who will, obviously, have an interest in what we are doing. It is also passed to the inspectorate. As the Deputy is aware, the inspectorate has been tasked by the Minister with looking at this area as well. It may have additional matters that need to be catered for. As an interim solution, on 30 August 2013, I issued a HQ directive outlining audits and clear accountability trails in the context of everything we are discussing.
