NSW: Scully unveils proposed new promotions system
Experienced officers will have greater chance of rising through New South Wales policing
ranks under a proposed new promotions system.
Police Minister CARL SCULLY has announced the changes, which will streamline the promotions
process, give more weight to experience and reduce delays in filling vacancies.
The current system was introduced in 1997 and has been criticised for not giving enough
weight to experience for officers applying for a higher rank.
Mr SCULLY says the new model has been created to address many of the current system's
inadequacies.
It's based on a report into the system by former Assistant Commissioner GEOFF SCHUBERG,
and has been reviewed by a working party chaired by former Police Minister PETER ANDERSON.
Police officers will have until October the 14th to give feedback on the plan, before
a decision is made on its implementation.
