On behalf of the NSW Jewish community, we extend our thanks and appreciation to NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb who has today announced her forthcoming retirement. We congratulate Commissioner Webb on a historic career of public service.

In particular, we recognise the Commissioner’s work ensuring that the Jewish community was supported through the spate of antisemitic attacks and campaign of harassment that followed the October 7 attacks.

In helping establish Operation Shelter and Strike Force Pearl, the Commissioner ensured that the Jewish community could worship and live in safety during a period of tumult.

We wish the Commissioner the best in her future endeavours and look forward to working with her successor.
