Audited at its Minister’s request

In November 2018 the Police Minister asked the Auditor-General to examine Commission spending on overseas travel. The Auditor-General found the Commission "did not comply with s. 12A" of the Public Finance and Audit Act: the Minister had declined approval and the Commission spent $8,074.66 anyway, arguing its statutory independence prevailed. The Auditor-General rejected that argument (Audit Office of NSW, 21 February 2019).
