## Resource

NSW Police are set to make body-worn cameras mandatory for all officers — a major shift sparked by a damning Four Corners investigation exposing years of misconduct since 2020. Officers must now record immediately whenever using police powers, ending the era of selective or forgotten recordings. This move aligns NSW with most other states, except WA, and follows pressure from the Law Enforcement Conduct Commission. Assistant Commissioner Peter Cotter called the report “a highlight reel of us being at our worst,” confirming the policy is under review and awaiting final approval. While the Police Association backs the change, the NSW Greens argue it should be legally enforced, not just a policy. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
