The Attorney-General's Chambers (AGC) has distanced itself from decisions surrounding the return of a border agency chief to the police, emphasising it had no involvement in the process. In a statement, the AGC said the department was not consulted regarding the matter and did not issue any legal opinion to support the official's redeployment. The clarification comes amid questions over the administrative procedures followed in reassigning the senior officer. The AGC's statement suggests other government agencies were responsible for handling the personnel decision independently. Further details on the timeline and justification for the official's transfer back to police ranks remain unclear.
