"This report sets out the findings of an Office of Police Integrity (OPI) review of Victoria Police's management of investigations, in particular, the management of 'high profile' cases - those cases which attract a high level of media attention. A recurring feature of many Victoria Police investigations is the unauthorised release of confidential information or 'leaking'. Although leaks occur when confidential information about an investigation is released by someone involved in the investigation to someone external to Victoria Police, many 'leaks' originate from other police who acquire information about an investigation when they do not have a legitimate 'need to know' about it. They then wittingly, or unwittingly, pass the information on to a third party"--P. 6
