Constitution
The first tribunal was established under Part 9A of the Police Services Act 1990 (NSW).
The tribunal was continued in existence under amendments made by Police Service (Complaints, Discipline and Appeals) Amendment Act 1993 (NSW). The tribunal was re-established as court of record.
The Governor of New South Wales could appoint a president or a deputy president of the tribunal. The president or the deputy president could either be a judge of the Supreme Court of New South Wales, the Industrial Relations Commission of New South Wales, the District Court of New South Wales or the senior chairperson of the Government and Related Appeals Tribunal of New South Wales.
Every judge of the District Court was automatically a member of the tribunal.
