Ep. 98 Nick Kaldas APM former NSW Police Deputy Commissioner and Chair of the Royal Commission into Defence and Veteran Suicide

On today's Zero Limits Podcast I chat with Nick Kaldas APM former NSW Police Deputy Commissioner and Chair for the Royal Commission into Defence and Veteran Suicide. 

Nick Kaldas held two of the most senior roles in the New South Wales Police Force, serving as Deputy Commissioner for almost a decade and, prior to that, Assistant Commissioner (Counter Terrorism and Special Tactics). He relieved as Commissioner of Police extensively. His career as a NSW Police Officer spanned almost 35 years, primarily in major and organised crime investigations, and counter-terrorism, with over a decade in homicide investigations. He also served in a number of senior roles within the United Nations system, and led the UN investigation into the assassination of Lebanese Prime Minister Hariri, and the investigation into the use of chemical weapons in the Syrian conflict. He was a member of numerous Government committees, at State and national levels. He is Egyptian-born, and fluent in Arabic and partially in French.

 Nick is the current Chair of the Royal Commission into Defence and Veteran Suicide. Royal Commissions are the highest form of inquiry on issues of public importance. The Royal Commission into Defence and Veteran Suicide was established to look into the high rates of suicide in Defence and veteran communities and make recommendations to government. The terms of reference outline the main issues we are considering.
