NSW Attorney General Mark Speakman has announced the appointment of Gail Furness SC as the Inspector of the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) and Bruce McClintock SC as the Inspector of the Law Enforcement Conduct Commission (LECC). Mr Speakman said the merit-based appointments will bring significant legal experience and knowledge to the roles. Both Ms Furness and Mr McClintock will commence five-year terms on July 1, 2022. The Inspector of the ICAC is an independent statutory role responsible for oversight of the ICAC, an independent body established to combat corruption and improve the integrity of the NSW public sector. The LECC detects, investigates and exposes serious misconduct within the NSW Police Force and the NSW Crime Commission, and independently monitors and reviews those agencies’ investigation of complaints about the conduct of their officers.
