The Minister of Police has requested independent expert advice on the standards and assessment practices for Police applicants, Police recruits and probationary constables to determine whether they meet best practice.

The scope of the advice will include: the processes Police use to determine minimum standards for Police applicants, Police recruits and probationary constables; the processes Police use to determine assessment methods (where assessment methods means the tools and techniques used to assess whether police applicants, recruits, probationary constables meet the minimum standards); and the procedures Police use to determine whether the application of assessment methods is consistently applied, nationally.
