In New South Wales, the termination of four senior media advisors for Police Commissioner Karen Webb over a span of two years has led to redundancy payments totaling approximately $700,000. This series of dismissals has prompted NSW Premier Chris Minns to order an urgent review of termination payouts for senior NSW public servants. The issue has raised concerns about the financial implications for taxpayers and the frequent turnover in such a critical role, with NSW Police now searching for a fifth chief public affairs boss within the same timeframe. Additionally, the NSW police had previously paid redundancies to three top media advisers in two years, totaling $687,000. The situation has sparked a broader discussion on the accountability and financial management within public service sectors.
