Guidelines and Practice Notes
Guidelines
The Police Integrity Commission has issued Guidelines to better acquaint persons, in particular legal practitioners, with the nature of the Police Integrity Commission's functions and powers, their usual exercise by the Commission, and its practice and procedure with particular reference to:
- obtaining;
- handling; and
- releasing information.
Amongst other things, the Guidelines explain the Commission's approach to various provisions of the Police Integrity Commission Act 1996 and its view of the application of relevant principles of law.
Practice Notes
Practice Notes in relation to Commission hearings have also been prepared. These are primarily directed to legal practitioners acting for persons involved in a Commission hearing and their requirements must be observed.
