Agenda matter

Action

[11/02/08, Item 4]

1. Policing of Events

The Panel considered its draft report and agreed that it was generally satisfied  with  the  wording  and  structure  of  the  main  body. Consideration was subsequently given to the Panel's draft findings and recommendations and amendments were identified accordingly. The Officer was requested to enact the amendments and subsequently to circulate the report, as amended, to Panel Members.

Subject  to  its  satisfaction  with  the  enactment  of  the  amendments identified, the Panel agreed to distribute the draft report to witnesses for factual comment. It was agreed not to distribute at this time the draft findings and recommendations to the Minister for Home Affairs and that a request would therefore be made for comments merely on the main body. It was further agreed that the Minister would receive the final draft of the report, including findings and recommendations, some time before its distribution to other parties and eventual presentation to the States.
