NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb has asked for a review into the force’s gift policies after accusations regarding the purchases of alcohol.
The NSW Police Commissioner has revealed there will be a review into the force’s gift policies after becoming shrouded in controversy following accusations made in parliament.
An investigation by the Law Enforcement Conduct Commission has found while she did not engage in serious misconduct, Commissioner Webb should have disclosed her association with an alcohol supplier where she bought bottles of gin with taxpayer funds. In a statement on Friday, the Commissioner said she has asked for a “comprehensive” review of the NSW Police Force’s gift policies, which is expected to be completed in the coming weeks."I would like to reiterate that the purchase of alcohol for ceremonial gifts and charitable donations was a tradition I continued as Commissioner, continuing with the same supplier as previously used," her statement said.
The former police officer also claimed to have"very good informants" inside the force and alleged the NSW Police boss purchased"in excess of 100 bottles of gin”.
