Minns rejects call for inquiry into NSW prosecutor removal
New South Wales Premier Chris Minns has dismissed a recommendation to investigate the removal of the state’s top prosecutor, saying the evidence does not justify it.
New South Wales Premier Chris Minns has ruled out a proposed inquiry into the removal of the state’s director of public prosecutions, Sally Dowling, after a recommendation raised the issue. He said the evidence did not support the suggested step.
The comments came in response to a report that examined the circumstances around Dowling’s position. Minns said he did not accept the case for the inquiry.
Dowling is the state’s chief public prosecutor, responsible for major criminal prosecutions in New South Wales. The recommendation has now been rejected by the premier, leaving the matter without the proposed investigation.
