This WA parliamentary committee report examines the revocation of an "exceptional powers" finding granted to the WA Police by the Corruption and Crime Commission (CCC).

The committee commends the CCC's swift response and subsequent improvements to the application process.

Impact

The report primarily affects the WA Police and the CCC, ensuring greater accountability and transparency in the use of exceptional powers. It also provides reassurance to the public regarding the oversight of these powers.
