Incoming NSW Police Commissioner Mal Lanyon faced tough questions at his first press conference, forced to defend his reputation over a drunken incident in Goulburn. Public confidence is earned, not just by … results but by consistency and transparency.”After months of speculation and internal factional battles, Labor has appointed Deputy Commissioner Mal Lanyon as the next NSW Police Commissioner. Mal Lanyon, Chris Minns and Yasmin Catley spoke about Lanyon’s appointment address. Lanyon, then a deputy commissioner, reportedly told the officers to “fuck off” before phoning Ambulance NSW chief executive Dr Dominic Morgan. Responding to questions on Wednesday, Lanyon said the Goulburn incident occurred more than four years ago and described it as “completely out of character”.
