The NSW Legislative Council's Select Committee on the Conduct and Progress of the Ombudsman's Inquiry "Operation Prospect" has tabled its final report. The select committee found, among other things, that there is "a compelling case to make a specific apology to Mr Kaldas" and called on the NSW Government to do so. The report recommends that the NSW Government establish an open and independent inquiry to review the current system for granting surveillance device warrants,and that the NSW Government establish "a single, well-resourced police oversight body that deals with complaints quickly, fairly and independently".
