    A law group wants to see a culture shift at Police - while also welcoming an Inspector-General

    A law group wants to see a culture shift at Police - while also welcoming an Inspector-General


    The new position was announced, in response to a scathing IPCA report.

    It identified a number of issues around how Police's senior leadership team failed to deal with complaints about then-Deputy Commissioner Jevon McSkimming in a timely and respectful manner.

    Defence Lawyers' Association co-Chair Elizabeth Hall says culture at Police needs to change.

    She says if people don't feel they can talk or raise complaints that will be listened to, then information flow will not take place.
