Overview

Led by Justice Michael Tulloch, the Independent Police Oversight Review is focused making recommendations to the Ontario Ministry of the Attorney General regarding the Special Investigations Unit (SIU), the Office of the Independent Police Review Director (OIPRD), and the Ontario Civilian Police Commission (OCPC) - bodies that provide police oversight across the province of Ontario. The purpose of the review will be: • to make recommendations on how to enhance the transparency and accountability of the police oversight bodies while preserving fundamental rights; • to ensure the police oversight bodies are effective and have clear mandates; and • to reduce overlap and inefficiencies between these bodies. A final report containing all recommendations will be delivered to the Attorney General no later than March 31, 2017 and will be made available to the public.
