Generated summary: written by an AI model from the report text and checked against the cited pages.
The Corruption and Crime Commission completed a final review of WA Police’s response to two earlier recommendations about deploying police dogs.
The review examined canine policies and oversight, and research into the disproportionate deployment of dogs on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
The Commission concluded that revised policies and procedures reduced ambiguity and risk and improved accountability for dog deployments.
The Commission closed both recommendations as appropriately addressed, while noting that incomplete data limited analysis of disproportionate deployment.
In the body's own words

- Conclusion
The Commission considers that WA Police responded appropriately to recommendation two, and it is deemed closed.
Findings and recommendations
Allegations are not findings. A commission's finding or opinion of corrupt conduct or misconduct is not a finding that a person is guilty of a criminal offence, and the commissions say so in their reports.
No findings or recommendations are reproduced in this record. This does not establish that the report contains none.

Notes on this record
- Report type assigned by OPAX from the title; the Commission tags every listing item Report.
Coverage
This publisher
- The Commission's website has no copyright or licence page; reports carry the Commission's copyright notice (fair dealing only), so OPAX keeps short verbatim extracts with citations and links the original PDFs.
- Only the reports listing (/publications/reports) is covered. Annual reports, quarterly reports filed under /quarterly-reports, media releases and news items are not report records.
- The listing date is the date the Commission's page was created; the record date is the report's cover date or the tabling date stated on the page where one is given, and the listing date only as a fallback.
- Opinions are extracted only where the Commission states them in a sentence on a single page; opinions in older reports framed differently, or split over a page break, are not extracted (findings not_extracted).
- No text layer, no OCR: scanned reports have no extracted opinions or recommendations.
