AUSTRALIAN FEDERAL POLICE ANNUAL REPORT 2010 -11 v
OVERVIEW The year 20 1 0- 11 has been successful and challenging for the Australian Federal Police (AFP). We have performed well in our role of enforcing
Commonwealth law and combating organised crime and criminal activity w ithin Australia and abroad. We have contributed to broader Commonwea lth interests including maintaining the integrity of Australia's border. contributing to disaster response and assisting foreign police development such as in Afghan istan. The AFP has also provided unique advice to government on
policing issues.
2 II CHAPTER 01â‘ COMMISSIONER'S REVIEW
The AFP's priorities for the period were set out forma lly in a Ministerial Direction from the Minister for Home Affairs and Justice. the Hon Brendan O'Connor MP . The Ministerial D irection sets the government's expectations of the AFP and reporting arrangements to inform the government of the AFP's performance. Th e current Ministerial Direction was issued on 1 July 201 0.
In 201 0-11 we focused on reinvigorating the AFP's investigative and operational capabilit ies to accord with the foreseeable operating environment. to improve relationships w ith
national and internat ional partners and to continue to contribute to whole-of-government efforts. The value and impact of building our investigative and operational capabilit ies are demonstrated in the following:
" The numbe r of cases reaching court increased by 31 per cent (34 7 to 460).
" The number of high-priori ty cases reaching court increased by 3 9 per cent (2 2 5 to 31 3 ).
" Overall. cases reaching court resulted in 99 per cent conviction rate.
" Drug and fraud investigations resulted in a return on investment ratio of 10:1.
" The D rug H arm Index calculation for 20 1 0-11 was over $ 1 billion . more than double the 2009 -1 0 figure.
" .In excess of $4 1 million of proceeds of crime were restrained. more than double the amount of the previous year.
" AFP members we re rapidly deployed to immigration detention centres in response to unrest and assisted in restoring order on a numbe r of occasions.
" The AFP delivered support to crises such as the Queensland floods. Cyclone Yasi and the New Zealand earthquake
" lhe AFP ma intained an operational footprint across Australia and internati onally.
Th e AFP 's revised structure. as informed by the
Beale review. has now been in operation for a full financial year. with three deputy comm issioners and a chief operating officer responsible for running day-to-day business and guiding the AFP's strategic direction . The structure also includes the functions Serious and Organised Crime and Crime Operations to ensure that investigations are streamlined and that crime types such as fraud. m oney laundering. the ill icit drug trade and technology-enabled crime are dea lt with holistically and as effic iently as possible.
The revised structure ensures that the AFP's opcmtionn nrc aligned with the J\ustralian Government's crime and national security priorities and provides operational flexibility. enabling the AFP to deliver outcomes in a com plex and evolving law en forcemen t and nationa l security environme nt.
As at 30 June 2011. the AFP had 6898 staff comprised of sworn police (3217). protective service officers ( 1 066) and unsworn staff (2615).
The AFP recorded a strong operating result with a reported departmental operating deficit of $9.9 million (excluding the impact of unfunded depreciation) - less than one per cent of the AFP's total budget. This ope rating result was achieved through robust budget management in an environment where the AFP has been able to respond to unforeseen events including the New Zealand earthquake and Queensland floods. The operating loss would not have occurred if the AFP had sought and received supplementation under existing no-win. no-loss arrangements relating to international deployments.
OPERATIONAL REVIEW Ope rationally it has been a very successful year for the A FP. meeting or exceeding 30 of our 32 key performance indicators .
The AFP dealt with a total of 4552 new referrals in 20 1 0-11. The majority of these were related to the Crime Program. The high-priori ty matters were m ainly drug impo rtations. online child sex offences, econom ic crime including m oney laundering and fraud. people smuggling. human trafficking and counter terrorism. New referrals also included a large number of requests from other law enforcement agencies (both domestic and international).
The AF P continues to rigorously target illicit drug importation. In October 201 0 the AF P and the Au stralia n Custom s and Bo rder Protection Service. with the support of N ew South W ales and Queensland police. intercepted and seized 400 kilograms of cocaine in Queensland - the third largest cocaine haul in Australian history.
Another joint investigation with partner agencies. the New South Wales Police Force and the Australian Customs and Bo rder Protection Service. resu lted in the seizure of 240 kilograms of cocaine - the fifth largest seizure of this drug in Australian history.
In November 201 0 the AFP was instrumental in a joint agency investigation with the New South Wales Police Force to dismantle an organised crime syndicate producing counterfeit currency.
AFP Coun ter Terrorism in 201 0-1 1 strengthened its preventive, disruptive and investigative capabilities by establishing a Terrorism Financing Investigations Unit. contributing to the m ulti " agency Counter Terrorism Control Centre. establishing a Countering Violent Extremism Team and renegotiating Joint Counter Terrorism Teams' memoranda of understanding with each
Australian jurisdiction .
AUSTRALIAN FEDERAL POUCE ANNUAL REPORl LOl0-11 3
The AFP maintained a high tempo of signif icant â‘te rronsm-related activities within Australia and abroad. the most visible result of these being the court findings with respect of Operation Neath . a
joint investigation into a planned terrorist attack against Australian Defence Force facilities , which resulted in three people being found guilty of terrorism offences in December 201 0.
The AFP launched the interim multi-agency C riminal Assets Confiscation Taskforce on 10 Ma rch 201 1. The taskforce is an AFP -Ied Commonwea lth initi ative committed to identifying and removing the profits derived from cnminal activity.
The interim taskforce has operated for a limited time but it has contributed significantly to the increase in assets restrained: $4 1. 1 million in the 201 0-1 1 financial year compared with
$ 18.9 million in the 2009 -1 0 financial year.
lhe A FP moved to establish a permanent Criminal Assets Con fiscation Taskforce that w ill combine the resources of the AFP. Australian Crime Commission and Australian Taxation Office. The work of the taskforce will comp lement other government measures designed to disrupt and deter serious and organised crime and support Lhe key capabilities identified in the Commonwealth Organised Crime Strategic Framework, in particular targeting the criminal economy.
The AFP's international relationships are fundamenta l to our success in a global terrorism and organised crime environment The AFP currently has liaison officers in 29 countries. working w1tl1 international law enforcement
partners to protect Australia's interests.
In July 201 0 the AFP opened a liaison office in New Delhi, India. The A FP worked with its Indian counterparts in Operation Adeo . which contributed to a safe and successful 20 1 0 Commonwealth Games in New De lhi. Against the background of a we ll publicised high-threat environment and media coverage of preparations. the AFP worked in collaboration w ith pa rtner agencies to assist in facilitating a safe environment for Australians attending the Games.
4 II CI~APTER Oiâ‘ COMMISSIONER"$ 11EVIEW
The AFP is committed to working with our international partners to ensure security and stability in our region. The recent success of democratic elections in So lomon Islands is a tribute to the countries involved in the Regional Assistance M ission to Solom on Islands (RAMS I). Through sha ring know ledge and expe rtise and displaying an understanding of the complex and diff icult challenges faced by people in Solomon Islands. RAMS I has helped bring about stability. peace and the rule of law
During the review period the A FP continued to target peop le smuggling in Australia's region. In the reporting period we charged 330 people with people smuggling offences. including three
individuals involved in the Ch ristmas Island tragedy of December 201 0. The Christmas Island tragedy serves as a timely reminder of the human cost of people smuggl ing.
AFP officers also worked w ith foreign law enforcement offshore to disrupt people smuggling syndicates. arrest offenders and prevent people from embarking to Australia illegally .
The High Tech Crime Opera tions area has achieved several key outcomes . These include the Novem ber 20 1 0 sentencing of an Australian man for child sex tourism offences committed in Nepal. ll1is man was the first to be convicted for offences introduced unde r the Crimes Leg1slation Amendment (Sexual Offences Agajnst Children) Act 20 10. The amended legislation strengthens the AFP's ability to investigate and prosecute Australians who offend aga inst children offshore and take account of the growing convergence between online crimes against children and child sex tourism.
In March 2011 the AFP was involved in a successful global effort to disrupt an onl1ne ch1ld abuse forum. the result of an investigation that commenced in 2007. Th is operation saw the AFP work alongside the United Kingdom's Ch ild Exploitation and Online Protection Centre. Un ited
States Immigration and Customs Enforcemen t. New Zealand Po lice. EU ROPOL. Dutch Police and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
The AFP's High Tech Crime Ope rations area also hosted the Virtual G loba l Taskforce conference in Sydney during December 201 0. The taskforce involves law enforcement industry, key international non-government organisations and academ ia. The taskforce. chaired by the AFP. focuses on work1ng with today's youth and recognises that combating online child sex exploitation and creating a safer internet environment for children is a global effort involving the com mitment of many relevant agencies. not just law enforcement
The investigations and operations noted are just a few examples of the work conducted by the /\FP over the past year. Much of the AFP's success has been underpinned by the cohesive nature of our close operations support and operational areas. The diversity of skills and expertise contained w ithin these functions is integral to front-li ne policing and will continue to be a priority for the AFP.
Implementation of Project Macer, the Ail-In model for policing at Australia's 11 major airports has continued on track. This model requires the Commonwealth and AFP to take responsibility for policing Australia's major airports. with staffing provided by sworn AFP officers. Implementation will continue through the next reporting period to deliver this capacity, which w ill also see the sworn AFP officers at airports able to be deployed across other crime types as required.
During 20 1 0-11 the At-1-' also contributed to recovery efforts following the natural disasters in Queensland and New Zealand. In response to the Queensland floods. the AFP committed
83 members to work alongside the Q ueensland Police Service to assist in search and recovery efforts over a mass ive search area. The A FP deployed 6 1 members to New Zealand to support the New Zealand Police in their search. rescue and recovery efforts in Christchurch. The AFP remains well placed to continue to meet the disparate challenges faced in response to natural disaster incidents.
BUSINESS REVIEW Recommendations from several key reviews were progressed. including the Federal audit of police capabiliti es (the Beale review). Implementation of the agreed recommendations from the Beale review has resulted in more internal flexibility for how we meet our operational priorities.
Furthermore. the AFP has driven improvements in business processes associated with the implementation of new policy init iatives. including in response to issues identified during an audit undertaken by the Australian National Audit Office during the report1ng period. These process improvement s will continue to be implemented as we move into 2011 -1 2.
Adherence to the AFP's seven strategic principles has realised a number of efficie ncies for the organisation. The savings realised through the One AFP. One Corporate initiative. as well as the revised business strategies that have been adopted. have allowed the operational component s of the organisation to do their job more effectively.
To ensure maximum effectiveness after the
recent period of significant growth for the AFP. I have directed that our Intellige nce. H igh Tech Crime Operations and Forensic and Data Centre functions undergo a continuous improvement process to ensure AFP strategic planning. capability development activity and internal procedures support the investigation and prevention of crime. The AFP has implemented Project Dominia, which aims to simplify and reduce excessive or unnecessarily bureaucratic AFP processes and allows us to better focus on core business. Reforms under this project are already making day-to-day business easier for staff and contribute to a more efficient AFP.
AUSTRALIAN FEDER A L POLICE ANNUAL REPORT 2010-11 5
Efficiencies have also been found through the move to the new A FP Na tional Headquarters. the Edmund Barton Building. The AFP National Headquarters was officially opened on
11 April 2011 by Prime M inister Julia Gillard and the Minister for Home Affairs and Justice. the Han Brendan O'Connor MP. A number of key environmental best-practice initiatives were
incorporated in the building's refurbishment thereby m inim ising the AFP's carbon footprint.
Shortly after becom ing Commissioner. I initiated the Rank Structure Review in recognition of the growing size and diversity of the AFP's role. The review was completed in February 201 1 and has been instrumental in our efforts to ensure consistency of ranks. titles and insignia across the sworn workforce.
Nego tiations for the new AFP Enterprise Agreement 2011-1 5 were conducted throughout the period. Wh ile negotiations were yet to be finalised as at 30 June 2011. the A FP and emp loyee representative groups have bargained on a range of enhancemen ts to working patterns. allowances and gene ral terms and conditions to craft an agreement more aligned to the contemporary needs of both staff and the organisation.
The AFP has also implemented a greater focus on customer service training as a means of improving both internal and external engagement and communication. The training was initiated
to encourage a consistently high standard of customer service in a function that represents core corporate suppo rt to the AF P.
Workplace diversity has continued to be a top priority for the AFP . It is pleasing to note that the AFP was recognised as the top public sector organisation for the 201 1 Australian Employer Quality Index award and was ranke d second overall against Australia's best private and public emp loyers.
6 II CHA PTER01 COMMISSIONERS REVIEW
FUTURE OUTLOOK Au stralia is faced w ith the ongo ing threat of terrorism and serious and organised crime. These threats emanate from both w ithin A ustralia and offshore. This presents a complex and changing operating environment for the AFP .
To operate successfully in this environment and to fulfil our manda te into the future, it is crit ical for the AFP to maintain effective partnerships with a broad range of stakeholders. As a membe r of
the Attorney-Gene ral's portf olio and the national security commun ity, the AFP w ill continue to take every opportunity to strengthen stakeholder relationships and promo te the A FP's unique role. capabilities and expertise
The AFP w ill continue to focus on fighti ng terrorism. serious and organised crime and secu rity threats affecting Australia's interests both in Australia and offshore. We w ill also continue to drive efficiencies within the organisation to ensure that we m aintain our focus on operational outcomes that apprehend offenders or prevent crime. Central to this will be the continuing comm it ment to our seven strategic principles and our values.
The AFP operates w ithin a strong and comprehensive oversight and accountability framework. starting with the M inisterial Direction through wh ich the M inister outlines the government's strategic priorit ies for the AFP. Against the Ministerial D irection and through our
Portfolio Budget Statements and annua l reports. the AFP is accountable to parliame nt.
Additional oversight comes through Australian National Audit O ffice examination and Commonwealth Ombudsman review of the AFP's exercise of specific powe rs. The Australian
Informa tion Commissioner oversees the AFP in relation to privacy and freedom of inform ation obligations. AFP emp loyees are also subject to professional standards and comp laints regimes wh ich are overseen by the Omb udsman and the Australian Commiss ion for Law Enforcement Integrity .
lhe 2010-11 reporting period was marked Finally. on a personal note, 201 0-11 marks my first full reporting year as Commissioner of the Australian Federal Police. It is an honour to lead such an effective police force and I look forward to what promises to be an exciting and successful year ahead.
by an important addition to this oversight framework, the Joint Parliamentary Committee on Law En forcement. For the first time. outside of the Senate Estimates process. parliament has a committee monitonng and reporting on the performance of the AFP . lhe committee also has the ability to examine trends and changes in criminal activities , practices and methods and report on any desirable changes to the functions, structure, powers and procedures of the AFP.
The seven strategic principles are: Reinvigorate investigations
Flexible deployment
Intelligence-led risl( " based
One AFP, One Corporate
Reduce supplier costs
Eliminate duplication
Strengthen stalceholder relationships
Reinvigorate our investigations capab ility by increasing resourcing and skills in the area.
Develop a more flexible tactical capability and deployment model across the uniformed workforce; align workforce development to wo rkforce deployment through a small number of career streams.
Enhance our intelligence-led risk-based approach to prioritise deployment of our resources around criminal and security risks.
Rationalise and consolidate corporate functions.
Reduce supplier costs to the AFP such as energy, fleet and property.
Map business processes, especially information and reporting processes to eliminate duplication or low value processes.
Educate and engage our stakeholders around our capability and expertise - stakeholders include the Minister and partner agencies.
The AFP's values are:

The A FP's focus remained on reducing crim inal and other security threats to Australia's collective economic and societal interests during 20 10 - 11 . In collaboration with its domest ic and regional law enforcement partners. the AFP focused on:
" countering the threat of terrorism to A ustralians and Australian interests, both nationally and internationa lly
" providing assistance to the Pacific region and to other areas of national interest such as So lomon Islands. Timor-Leste and Afghanistan to strengthen order and their rule of law
" preventing and investigating organised and serious criminal activity affecting Australians and Australian interests
" countering the threat posed by high-tech crime and cybercrime.
EP
As a result of the Federal audit of police capabilities delivered by Mr Roger Beale AO in 2009, the AFP consolidated its key national capabilities around three core operational programs : security and protection, international dep loyments and serious crime. A long w ith one operational support program, this rationalised the previous seven programs into four focused programs and allowed greater flexibility in directing resources to emerging and priority needs. The AFP' s revised Outcome 1 statement and associated programs formally took effect from 1 July 2010.
OUTCOME1 Outcome 1 contributes to reduced criminal and security threats to Australia's economic and societal i nterests through cooperative policing services.
Program 1.1: N ational Security " Policing Program 1.1's primary focus is on prevention. It comprises the Co unter Terrorism. Aviation and Protection functions.
Prog ram 1.2: International Deploym ents The International Deployment Group delivers initia tives on behalf of the Australian Government
that are aimed at improving regional and internationa l security . stability and governance.
Program 1 .3: Op erations - Policing
Program 1.3 seeks to reduce criminal threats to Australia's collective econo m ic and societal interests by em ploying a multidisciplinary approach to combat ing crimes against the Commonwealth. Th e program compr ises the Se rious and Organised Crime {which includes the Internati ona l Network) and Crime Operations functions.
Program 1.4: Close Operational Support Program 1.4 provides specialist support to the AFP's national security and operations programs. in particular addressing adva ncements in technology and science .

NEW REPORTING STRUCTURE In 2010 the AFP consolidated its program structure under an updated Outcome 1 statement: Reduced criminal and security threats to Australia's collective economic and societal interests through cooperative policing services. Outcome 2 remained unchanged and continues to reflect the AFP's role in community policing within the Australian Capital Territory.
ll1e main changes from 2009-1 0 to 201 0-11 are the formation of the following programs:
" National Security-Po licing (an amalgama tion of Protection Services. Aviation Services and the Counter Terrorism component of the former Criminal Investigations Program)
" Operations - Po licing (an integration of key elements from the former Criminal Investigations Program including the Border and International Network. and Economic and Special Operations).
Th is chapter provides a summary of performance
of the four programs under Outcome 1. Further performance details are in chapters 04 to 05.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS The AFP had 32 key performance indicators (KPis) set in the Portfolio Budget Statement (PBS) 2010-11 (tables 1 to 4). The AFP met or exceeded the targets for 30 of the 32 KPis. The two targets not me t were:
" KP I 1 7 - operational coordination (external satisfaction rating) , which scored 7 1 per cent against a target ot 80 per cent
" KP I 23 -the provision of close operations support (internal satisfaction rating). which scored 7 9 per cent against a ~arget of 80 per cent.
Program 1.1: National Security - Policing Th is program comprises Aviation. Counter Terrorism
and Protection. The AFP tested the overall level of external client and partner satisfaction with this
16 //CHAPTER 03: PERFORMANC E OVERV IEW
program's performance through the AFP Business Satisfaction Survey. The result was a satisfaction rating of 90 per cen t (KPI 1. table 1 ).
The other KP is within this program were specific to two AFP functions - Aviation and Counter Terrorism. All KPis were met or exceeded .
The emphasis on prevention. disruption and investigation across the National Security functions is evidenced through all KPis within Program 1. 1 . ll1e primary focus is on prevention. ach ieved through collaborative policing within the security sector. Prevention activities are captured through both KPI 3 and Kfll 7. All Aviation response time targets were ach ieved (KPI 8) and of particular note is the improvement in five-minute response times to priority one airport incidents from 7 9 per cent in
2008-09 to 83 per cent in 201 0-11. The level of community confidence in the AFP's contribution to law enforcemen t and security at major Australian airports (KPI 6) is established through the annual AFP Airport Community Confidence Survey. In
2011 almost 2000 travellers were interviewed and advised a satisfaction level of 7 7 per cent - an increase from 70 per cent in 2009 and 76 per cent in 2010.
Internal monitoring and reporting of Protection's Business Satisfaction Survey results showed a marked improvement. increasing to 89 per cent from 81 per cent the previous year.
Program 1.2: International Deployments The International Deploymen ts program represents the contribution of the International Deployment Group (lOG) to national security by providing policing support to enhance the rule of law internatio nally. All targets in this program were met or exceeded .
Improvements were seen in the level of satisfaction of IDG domestic and internationa l clients (KPI 9 and KPI 1 0). lOG resources were directed in accordance with the Wor ld Bank's rule of law indicators (KPI 13) Sim ilarly, the IDG contributed regionally through the provision of resources to countries in the Asia-Pacific region (KPI 14) and at levels above the international average (KPI 15).
lhis year has seen the finalisation of the University of Queensland proJect (KPI 1 2 ). This pro. ect was to develop a set of performance indicatcrs that measure the impact of the lOG's contribution to improved international rule of law through delivery of stabilisatio n and international capacity development operations. The project has been tested and final project documentation titled 'Collaborative Policing. Monitoring and Evaluation' has been provided to the AFP . The AFP will use this material to design evaluation frameworks for future deployments.
Program 1.3: Operations -Policing The Operations-Policing program comprises the Serious and Organised Crime function and the Crime Operations function. This program achieved five out of the six KP is. The one KPI not met is the level of satisfact ion of partner agencies with operational coordination of joint policing activities around border-related crime (KPI 17). The results were 7 1 per cent against a target of 80 per cent Further analysis suggests two contributors to this KPI outcome :
" the w ording of the survey question designed to inform this KPI
" the level of neutral responses.
A higher level of satisfaction for KPI 1 7 was received from AFP International Network clients than from AFP domestic clients. Importantly. how ever. w hile not reportoble in the KP is. the overall satisfaction for the C rime Program was 82 per cent.
Despite the discrepancy in the satisfaction results between KPI 1 7 and the Crime Program's overall satisfaction result. all other Operations - Policing program targets we re m et or exceeded. This includes the KP is reflecting the various strategies of the Organised Crime Strategic Framework such as serious and organised crime o~erations conducted under JOmt agency agreements (KPI 1 8) and targeting the criminal economy (KPI
20}. The success of fraud and drug investigations is reflected in an overall return on investment ratio of over 1 0 to 1 (KPI 19). The ma in compone nts of this calculation are the Estimated Financial Return. which was $249 million (com~ared with
$244 million for 2009-1 0) and the total Drug Harm Index (DHI). which was over $1 billion (compared with $4 73 million for 2009-1 0). The DHI is driven by the greater weight of drugs seized in all major drug classes (details in chapter 04). Details of disruption to ill icit drug activity both nationally and internationally are also provided in chapter 04.
Of the Operations - Policing program cases reaching court. 99 per cent resulted in a conviction (KPI 21 ).This was up from 96 per cent in 2009-1 0 . M oreover. the overall number of cases reaching court increased by 3 1 per cent from 34 7 to 4n0 lhP. inc;rease was most pronounced in relation to high-priority cases which increased by 39 per cent from 225 to 313. These increases reflect the trend over the past five years. The increase this year is mairly due
to more people smugg ling investigations reaching court.
Program 1.4: Close Operational Support The Close Operational Support program provides specialist support to the AFP national security and operations programs. particularly to address advances in technology and science. It is comprised of A FP Forens1 c and Data Centres.
the High Tech Crime Operations function. the Intelligence function and the Operations Support function. This program met 10 out of 11 KPis. KPI 23. which achieved a rating of 79 per cent aga 1nst a target of 80 per cent relates to the overall leve l of internal client satisfaction . Ex1ernal client satisfaction achieved 84 per cent against a
target of 80 per cent (KPI 22}.
AFP Forensic and Data Centres met its service level targets for quality (KPI 24}. timeliness (KP I 25}. throughput (KP I 26) and capacity building (KP127}. High Tech Crime Operations
exceeded its investigations targets for case prioritisation (KPI 28} and positive case outcomes (KPI 29 and KPI 30) and exceeded its targets for technology crime awareness training of both internal staff (KPI 31} and the schoo l community (KPI 32).

PROGRAM 1.1: NATIONAL SECURITY- POLICING Counter Terrorism
Performance highlights Operation Neath
" On 23 Decerrber 2010 three people were found guilty of terrorism offences contrary to section 11.5 and section 101.6 of the Criminal Code Act 1995. These outcomes relate to Operation Neath. which was a joint investigation into planned terrorist attacks aga inst Austra,ian Defence facilities.
In 2010-11 AFP CounterTerrorism strengthened its preventive, disruptive and investigative capabilities by:
" establishing the dedicated Terrorism Financing Investigations Unit to focus specifically on terror ist-fi nancing investigations. intell igence. education and liaison
" establishing a Counte ring Violent Extremism Team to undertake commun ity engagement and de-radicalisation activities in collaboration with key partners and the commun ity. consistent w ith the objectives of the national approach to coun tering violent extremism in Australia
" contributing to the establishment of the multi-agency Counter Terrorism Control Centre to strengthen Australia's counter-terrorism intelligence activities by better integrating and coordinating capabilities acrqss the National
Intelligence Community
" renegotiating Joint Counter Terrorism Teams ' memoranda of understanding to better integrate and coordinate the roles and functions of law enforcement and security intell igence agencies in the investigation of terrorism- related activities
" facilita ting International Counter Terrorism Investigation workshops in Tha iland and Malaysia
" dep loying a number of Counter Terrorism personnel as part of an AFP team to New Delh i. India. for t he 20 1 0 Commonwea lth Games and assisting in the establishment and management of a police operations centre at the Aus tralian High Commiss ion to ensure a secure environment foâ‘ Australians attending the Games.
24 II CHAPTER 04. PERFORMANCE DETAILS
Overview The objective of the Counter Terrorism function is to prevent. disrupt and investigate terrorist activity against Australia and Australian interests both domest ically and internationally.
During 201 0-11 the Counter Terrorism function achieved these results in relation to its key performance indicators:
" 96 per cent of resources were directed to high-impact and very high-impact cases .
" 82 per cent of resou rces were devoted to operational activity and 1 8 per cent were devoted to capacity deve lopment activity.
" Client satisfaction was 86 per cent.
" 1 00 per cent of counter-terror ism investigat ions were preventive.
" 1 00 per cent of counter-terror ism investigations resulted in a prosecution. disruption or intelligence referral.
Joint Counter Terrorism Teams established in each Australian jurisdiction. comprising membe rs from the AF P and other government agenc ies. work together to prevent. detect and investigate terrorist incidents and terrorism " related activity. including terrorist financing. Th roughout the reporting period the AFP has continued to contribute to a number of
preventive operations including Operation Ne .ath and Operation Pendenn is. which resulted in successful prosecutions.
The AF P works close ly with the Australian intelligence commun ity. state and territory police and the community to evaluate and investigate information which may affect Australia's national security. The AFP's Commun ity Liaison Te ams comp lement these activities by strengthening community ties within demog raphics identified as be ing particularly vulnerable to the development of extremist ideologies and the radicalisation of individuals. This com m unity engageme nt through the AFP
Community Liaison Tea m s involves organising and participating in a range of activities with you ng people and membe rs of various ethnic and religious commun ities.
Internationally, the AFP undertakes operational activities and information sharing with internatio nal law enforcement agencies to combat the global threat of terrorism. lhe AFP enhances counter-terrorism capability through:
" Regional Cooperation Teams in Indonesia and the Philippines
" Reg ional Bomb Data Centres in Malaysia. the Philippines. 1hailand and Indonesia
" the Training and Deve lopment Centre in ll1ailand
" Counter Terrorism Liaison Officers in the United Kingdom. United States of America. Indonesia and Pakistan.
While the death of AI-Qaida leader Usama bin Laden in early 2011 was a positive development for international efforts against terrorism. the AFP recognises that the terrorist threat continues to diversify . To combat the threat the AFP relies on strong cooperative relationships with national security and law enforcement agencies both domestically and internationally .
Domestic counter-terrorism measures Joint Counter Terrorism Teams
The AFP enjoys strong cooperative and consu ltative relationships w ith its Commonwealth. state and territory partners through the Joint Counter Terrorism Teams in each jurisdiction.
The Joint Counter Terrorism Teams are a partnership arrangement. comprising members from the AFP, state and territory police. Australian Security Intelligence Organisation officers and representatives from other agencies where required. The aim of the teams is to work closely with other domestic agencies. the broader intelligence community and internat ional partners to identify and investigate terrorist activities in Australia . including terrorist financing, with a focus on preventive operations.
During 20 1 0-11 the AFP renegotiated nationally consistent governance frameworks for the strategic management of counter " terrorism operations through a memorandum of understanding with each Australian jurisdiction. The se instruments integrate and coordinate the
roles and functions of law enforcement and security intell igence agencies as equa l partners in the investigation of terrorism-related activities.
CounterTerrorism Control Centre
The Counter Te rroris m Co ntrol Centre. an initiative announced in the 2 0 1 0 Counter Terrorism White Paper Securing Australia. protecting our community. was established to strengthen Australia's counter-terrorism intelligence activit ies. The AFP is a key partner agency within the Counter Terrorism Control Centre. which was established and is hosted by the Aus tralian Ser.tJrity Intelligence Organisation to set and manage counter-terrorism priorities. identify intelligence requirements and ensure that the processes of collecting and distributing counter-terrorism information are harmonised and effective across the spectrum of Australia's counter-terrorism activit ies.
Terrorism Financing Investigations Unit
lhe AFP recently established the Terrorism Financing Investigat ions Un it which is modelled on similar financing investigation units operating in the United States of America and the U nited Kingdom.
Composed of highly skilled investigators and financial analysts. the role of the Terrorism Financing Investigations Unit is to specifically target the financing of terrorism and terrorist organisations both domestically and offshore.

Performance reviews Measuring the impact of IDG operations
In February 2007 the AFP contracted the Un iversity of Queens land to examine existing lOG performance assessment m ethodologies and develop an updated body of knowledge that includes an effective means of measuring the impact of IDG operations. The project. 'Measu ring the impact of the lOG 's contribution to peace operations and internatio nal capacity buildingâ‘. was comp leted and delivered to the AFP in June
20 11. lhe AFP w ill now commence a process of impleme ntation of the framework across applicable A FP internationa l policing missions.
AUSTRALIAN FEDERAL POLICE AN N UAL REPORT 2010 -11 45
The comp leted project has delivered a comprehensive framework that emphasises and builds upon local engagement as the core platform f or establishing mission objectives and meas urement of mission success. Although the framework allows for the use of quantitative data where this can be obtained consistentl y and reliably, the ma in focus of the project is measurement of progress in m ission environments where reliable quantitative data is difficult or even impossible to source. The
framewo rk is built upon a qualitative process that provides a numbe r of tools that reduce the subjectivity of previous qualitative methods sufficientl y to measure progress against a well " established justifiable baseline. Th e University of Queensland has met the design brief from the AF P for a framework that is flexib le enough to be applied to all types of A FP m ission typologies and all stages of mission delivery.
Foundation theoretical work from the University of Queensland includes a number of papers that examine aspects of the mission environments in which the AF P operates Internationall y. as well as aspects of measuremen t of performance in the international deve lopment context. A report to the AFP provides a detailed rationale for the framewo rk, as w ell as critical review of a number of other performance meas urement approaches that led the project team to decide on the approach used for the final framework developed. The project team has also w rinen abridged and comprehensive practitio ner manuals that prov1de
instructions for use of the framework. Field testing of the framework using AFP missions in Marshall Islands and Van uatu was conducted during the 20 1 0-11 financial year to ensure the framewo rk could be applied in a practical con text.

Commonwealth fraud
In Operation Ta iga the AFP executed 35 w arrants Australia-wide during ongoing AFP and Departmen t of Climate Change and Ene rgy Effic iency investigations into allega tions of fraud against the H ome Insulatio n Program. A num ber of referrals for state-based offences were made to the relevant state agencies as a result of these warrants.
Corruption and foreign bribery
Operation Rune is an ongoing 1nvest1gatlon into bribery offences which has involved extensive Internationa l AFP-coo rdinated activity. including six search warrants executed by the AFP and 11 search warrants executed by United Kingdom and Spanish au thorities. The AFP recogn ises the assistance of Austrade. the Commo nwea lth
Director of Public Prosecutions and Attorney " Genera l's Depa rtment which have all been instrumental in the investigation. The AFP Will continue investigations in Australia and internationally w it h law enforcement partners. The AFP's International Network has been crucial to the investigation in facilitating liaison and the excha nge of information with International counterparts.
This operation has highlighted the com plexity of international lega l and factual matters in investigations of bribery of fore1gn public officials. As a result. the AFP engaged with Austrade and the A ttorney-Genera l's Department in support of legislative review and educational initiatives to raise awareness of this issue in Aus tralian com pa nies operating overseas.

Human trafficking
ll le AFP changed the name of the Transnational Sexual Exploitation and Traffick ing Team to Human Trafficking Teams on 30 May 2011 to better reflect the nature of this crime type. Teams are located in Sydney. Brisbane and Melbourne.
The AFP progressed 45 investigations in 20 1 0-11. 3 5 of them being new referrals. The 45 investigations in 2010-1 1 compare w ith 38 investigations in 2009-10. Approxima tely 6 9 per cent of the investigations were related to trafficking for sexual exploitat ion and the
remainder related to trafficking for other forms of labour exploitation.
Investigat ion outcomes included:
" the recovery of approximately $5 m illion as a result of an AFP human traff icking investigation
" as a result of Opera tion Raspberry. which related to allegations of women being traff icked
into the sex industry in Melbourne . the charging of the female suspect a Chinese national. with two counts of sexual servitude and two counts of debt bondage in relation to tvvo female victims .
Identity crime
In the 201 0-1 1 financial year the Identity Security Strike Teams conducted 18 new investigations . which are typically protracted and complex. For example:
" Operation Lane related to a Sydney -based syndicate involved in the production and use of false identifica tion cards to facilitate financial frauds. Five suspects were charged and approximately 5000 credit cards. other
identity cards and machinery were seized . The Sydney Identity Security Strike Team worked closely w 1th state police. the Department of Immig ration and Citizenshi p. New South Wa les Roads and Traffic Authority and financ1al
institutions to resolve this investigation. Resolution activity took place in New South Wales and Sou th Australia.

The suspect was arrested and charged.
Illicit drugs
The overall volume of illicit drug seizures in 201 0-1 1 increased comp ared with 2009-1 0. This increase may be partly attributed to the creation of the new AFP Crime Program and to improve m ents in the effectiveness of the A FP 's domestic and international operations. including enhanced cooperation with international. Commo nwea lth. state and territory partners.
In the 2010-11 financial year the total amount of drugs seized was 5187 kilograms, an increase of 39 4 1 kilogram s (31 6% ) over the previous financial year. This includes:

bags. jewellery and pirated COs and DVDs .
Money laundering
The Crime Program has continued its pursuit of the financial base of crime with a strong focus on money laundering. Investigations in partnership with the Australian Crime Commission and the Australian Transaction Repo rts and Analysis Centre (AU STRAC) have focused on alternat ive
remittance businesses facilitating illi cit money movemen ts on behalf of organised crime syndicates. A lternative rem ittance businesses in Australia are recognised as a potentially high-risk com ponent of the f1nancial sector. vulnerable to abuse for criminal purposes. The absence of sound paper trails, as we ll as weak custome r due diligence and risk management system s, can contribute to mone y launde ring opportunities This targeting strategy has proven extrem ely successful - since Oc tober 2009 there have been cash seizures in excess of $1 6 m illion and tile arrest of 1 2 people for money laundering.
Ope ration Zane lla. a money laundering investigation. resulted in the seizure of A$1 931 395. £300 000 and US$6500 during the 2010-11 financial year. Th is operation aims to deter and disrupt organised and high " volume money laundering activity through
partnerships with the financial industry, the Australian public sector and international law enforcement agencies. The investigation spans many jurisdictions and has resulted in enhanced
international relationships and produced significant crime-targeting efficie ncies. It is a case that will continue to receive significant support within the AFP's Serious and Orga nised C rime function during the com ing year.
People smuggling
Bu dget me asu res between 1 July 2009 and Ma rch 2011 provided the AFP with a total of $73.1 m illion over four years to implem ent six new policy initiatives, ranging from one to four years for each program. These funding initiatives
enhanced AFP assistance to foreign counterparts to build their capacity to detect and disrupt peop le smugg ling offences.
As pa rt of a w hole-of-g overnment national strategy to combat people smug gling. the AFP provides investigators and intelligence and financial analysts to the Pe ople Sm uggling Strike Team based in Canberra, Sydney, Me lbourne and Perth. The AFP arm of the Peop le Sm uggring Strike Team conducts investigations in Australia and overseas in relation to people smug gling organisers, facilita tors and crew.lhe AF P has provided funding to the Australian Cus toms and Border Protection Service and the Department of Immigration and Citizenship to second officers to tl1e People Smuggling Strike Tea m in Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra. The
People Smuggling Strike Team also works very closely with the Australian Cus toms and Border Protection Service Border Protection Command to contribute to the joint and collaborative approach to people smuggl ing.
In Ap ril 201 0 Operation Louvar was commenced to progress the investigation and prosecution of suspected crew members from suspected irregular entry vessels that had been held in immigr ation detention.
In the 20 1 0-11 financial year the AFP arrested 329 crew and one organiser, who were charged with offences under the Migration Act 1958. These offences attract a m aximum penalty of
20â‘years imprisonment.
AUSTRALIAN FEDERAL POLICE Af\JNUAL REPORT 2010 -11 53
On 1.5 December 2 0 1 1 a suspected irregular entry vessel (SIEV). now known as SIEV 221. ran aground in the area known as Rocky Point. Christmas Island. It was estimated that 90 people were on board. 4 2 of whom survived. After an initial response from the AFP International Deployment Group. Crime Program assumed responsibility for the coordinated response to the incident The Crime Program continues to play the primary role in the investigation of criminal offences around SIEV 221 . as well as providing support to the Western Australia coronia! investigation.
Crime prevention and partnership development International cooperation
Experience has demonstrated that the most effective way to identify, deter and disrupt transnational crime is to take a proactive role offshore. It is also recognised that to counter the threat to Australia posed by transnational organised crime it is necessary to disable crim1nal activities and networks through internatioral engagement.
The AFP International Network supports efforts to disrupt crime at its source through investigative. intell igence and capacity-build ing activities facilitated by intelligence-sha ring agreements. JOint operations and alliances rorged through participation in multilateral and regional forums. The International Network. in conjunction with
the International Policy Coordination Group. has continued to review the operational effectiveness of the network wh ich has led to the development of the International Engagement Strategy. lhis documen t is underpinned by specific regional strategies to ensu re that AFP resources are best placed to comb at transnational crime threats affecting Australia.
Pos ts
The AFP has personnel dedicated to law enforcement cooperation at posts in Indonesia. Malaysia. Thailand. Sri Lanka and Pakistan.
54 II CHAPTER 04 PERFORMANCE DETAILS
As a result of the constantly changing crim inal environment. new posts were opened in New Delhi (July 201 0) and Los Angeles (April 20 11) wh ile Hon iara was closed at the end of the 201 0-11 financial year. lhe new posts will ensure continued collaboration with law enforcement partners to meet challenges posed by technology-enabled crime. money laundering. drug trafficking. identity crime. child sex offences. people smuggling. fraud and terrorism.
The New Delhi Post has already demonstrated strong results by providing critical support for Operation Hoffman (see P4 8) and the whole-of-government response to the 2010 Commonwealth Games and International Cricket Council Cricket W orld Cup. lhe AFP presence in Los Angeles has provided opportunities to strengthen the US -Australia alliance and advance Australian law en forcement interests in Mexico. western United States and Canada .
Visits
During the 201 0-11 financial year the International Network facilitated 3 7 inwards and 24 outwards visits of AFP and foreign law enforcement agency delegations to/from Australia. Engagement with these delegations is a key component in strengthening the relationships between the AFP and its international partner agencies. often resulting in the identification of capacity building opportunities and leading to
subseq uent operational outcomes.
Sharing intelligence
Th e AF P sha res intelligence w ith law enforcement
partners in key source and transit countries to disrupt people smuggling ventures before they depart for Australia. Between 1 July 201 0 and 30 June 2011. AFP law enforcement partners in key source and transit countries disrupted over 80 maritime ventures involving over 2300 potential illegal imm igrants and made over 70 arrests.
lhe International Network undertook structural reforms to facilitate the flow of intelligence to partners and clients. increase engagement with
foreign law enforceme nt agencies and reduce overheads and duplication at posts. For example. the AFP and United Kingdom Serious Organ ised Crime Agency (SOCA ) engaged in a pilot project that enables SOCA and the AFP to employ each
other's international networks in certain locations. The arrangements seNe to max im ise the use of resources. im prove capability and timeliness in respond ing to international inquiri es and reduce associated costs.
Capacity building
Law Enforcement Cooperation Program
A total of $4.5 million was allocated to the Law Enforcement Cooperation Program (LECP) for the 20 1 0-11 financial yea r. Approval wa s given for 24 capacity-building prog ram s wh ich serve to enhance the capab ilities of the AFP and its Internat iona l partners. Through the LECP. the AFP has directly increased the capacity of regional coun tries and their ability to conduct intelligence activities and effective investigations through the
provision of apparatus such as surveillance and technical equ ipment and motor vehicles. The LECP has also funded individuals from foreign law enforcement agencies to undertake training and development programs and university scholarships.
Es tablishment of the Cambo dian Transnati onal Crime Tea m
One program resulted in the Aus tralian Joint Transnationa l Crime Centre being ope ned in Ho Chi M inh City and the establishment of the Cambodian Transnational Cnme Team . This
has enabled collaboration between Australia. Vietnam and Cambo dia on transna tional crimes such as ill icit drug production and trafficking. mon ey laun dering and human trafficking and has enhanced intelligence sharing.
Through the ongoing relationship w ith the Cambodian Transnational Crime Team. the AFP is working with the Cambod ian National Police on joint law enforcement initi atives witl1 the aim of combating organised crime activit ies that threaten
the mutual i nterests of Aus tralia and Cambodia . In the past year the Cambodia n Transnationa l C rime Team made its first arrest of an internal cou rier attempting to depart from Cambod ian borders. as well as conducting joint operations w ith neighbou ring countries to disman tle clandestine laboratories.
Training
The AF P sponsors internati onal senior police opportunities on a range of man agemen t and leadership courses such as International Manage me nt of Serious and Organ ised Crime and Asia Reg ion Law En forcement Ma nageme nt
Program . In addition to this. the International Network has facili tated several regional and in country courses to better deve lop the capabil1t1es of our tnternat1onal law enforcement partners. Fo r exam ple:

Engagemen t in the Pacific is an Australian foreign policy priority and is imperative for the ma intenance of Australia's nationa l security and stability in the region. The Pacific Transnationa l Crime Network (PTCN) plays a pivotal role across the Pacific region by enhancing the capacity of
Pa cific nations to combat transnational crime.
This was achieved through a platform of people. partnerships and law enforcement intelligence . The PTCN provides proactive transnational criminal intelligence and investigative capa bilities to Pacific regional law enforcement agencies. The Pac ific Transnational Crime Coordination Centre (PTCCC) in Samoa acts as the hub for a number of Transnational C rime U nits (TCUs) in the Pacific. Additiona lly, the AFP funded two Case Ma nagement and Intelligence System training courses. rolled out a specific PTCN portal and conducted two leadership and development courses for PTCN members.
The PTCN is a law enforcement network based around a multi-agency fusion concept of poli ce. customs and immigration officials. The AFP provides financial support for the day-to-day operations of the PTCCC and the TCUs . The PTCN is designed to actively engage Pacific Islands countries in combating transnational crime that affects their countries. Pacific Islands countries
have comm itted to the PTCN by providing staff for the AFP-funded TCUs. The re are currently 1 3 TCUs in the Pacific. with an additional TCU soon to be established in the Cook Islands and expected to be operational by August 20 1 1. Three mini-TCUs (in Palau. Commonwealth of the
Northern Mariana Islands and Mars ha ll Islands) feed into the Micronesia TCU and all TC Us feed into the PTCC C. The AFP provides a full time PTCCC adviser in Samoa and a part-time adviser to the Micronesia TCU.
In 20 10 the International Ne twork facilitated the inaugural TCU conference. A signifrcant outcome from this was that all TCUs agreed to meet formally on an annual bas is to continue improved information sharing and to build on intelligence
methodology best practice.

Memoranda of understanding
The AFP renewed or commenced a number of memoranda of understanding to formalise cooperative arrangements in combat ing transnational crime in countries such as Pak istan,
Hong Kong. East Timor. Tha iland and Cambodia.
National cooperation
Multi-agency taskforces
The Commonwealth Organised Crime Strategic Framework places em phasis on a m ulti-agency approach to delivering operationa l. policy. regulatory and legislative responses to organised crime threats. The A FP remains an active driver of policy and legislative initiatives designed to execute the framework's intention . ll1e A FP is also a significant contribut or to managing the framework's requisite operational requirements.
Taskforce Polaris and Taskforce Yelverton
In the 20 1 0-11 financial year the AFP and partner agencies established two mu lti agency taskforces based in Sydney and Pe rth. They draw the expertise, know ledge. intelligence and powers of Co mmo nwe alth and state law enforcement agencies into single mu ltidisciplinary teams. focused on prosecuting and dismantling organised criminal networks.
The Sydney Taskforce (Polaris) is responsible for coordinating the activities of the A ustralian Customs and Bo rder Protection Se rvice. New South Wa les Po lice Fo rce, Australian C rime
Commiss ion and New South Wales Crime Com m ission in targeting serious and organised criminality impacting on the internat iona l sea cargo terminals and associated supply chains. The taskforce specifically focuses on exploitation
by criminal networks of leg itimate business processes within the maritime sector.
The Pe rth Ta skforce (Yelverton) coordinates the activities of the Australian Customs and Border Protection Service. Australian C rime Comm ission and We stern Aus tralia Police in targeting the mu ltijurisd ictional trafficking of illici t drugs. financial transactions intended to disgu ise income
source or currency flow and crim inal activities that indicate a level of organisational structure.
Crimina/ Assets Confiscation Taskforce
Anacking the financial base of crime is an AFP priority. The Crime Program established a Criminal Assets area and the position of Manager Criminal Assets. D uring the 201 0 federal election. the government committed to establishing the multi " agency Criminal Assets Confiscation Taskforce, to be led and hosted by the AFP . The taskforce commenced operations in January 2011 and wa s formally launched in Ma rch 20 11. The taskforce is managed and supported from the Criminal Assets area.
lhe taskforce brings together resources from the AFP. Australian Taxation Office, Aus tralian Crime Commission and Commo nwealth Director of Pub lic Prosecutions in a focused effort to identify and confiscate the benefits derived from criminal activity.lhe taskforce provides a coordinated and integrated approach to Commonwealth criminal asset confiscation, delivering on the government's strategy to increase and strengthen agency collaboratio n as a ma jor tool in the fight against serious and organised crime. lhe collaborative
nature of the taskforce ensures that the skill s. expertise. know!edge and legislative mandate of each participating agency are fully exploited.
This init iative has provided the AF P and the Commonwealth w ith a greater abili ty to identify and pursue criminal wealth. A significant strategy of the Crimina I Asse ts Confiscation Taskforce is the proactive profiling and identi fication of criminal assets with Commonwealth, state and international partners.
National Task Force Chamonix
As part of its commitment to mu lti -agency activiti es targeting organised crime. the AFP, through the Identity Sec urity Strike Teams. participated in National Task Force Chamonix. which targeted card-skimming activit ies.
Intelligence sharing
In support of the O rganised Crime Strategic Frame wo rk, the A FP and the Attorney-General's Departm ent lead the Identity Crime Response Plan Imp lementation Team. wh ich implemen ts the recommenda tions endorsed by the Heads of
Co mmon wea lth Opera tional Law Enforcement Agencies (HOCO LEA) . The AfP and Australian Crime Comm ission formu lated the National Identity Crime Intelligence Collection Plan to
provide a framework for enhanced intelligence coope ration across the Commonwealth and states.
Training
On 14 April 2011 the AFP Human Trafficking Team hosted the People Trafficking: Achieving Co llaborative Awareness Discussion Exercise to identify current and future legislative,
administrative, service and socio-legal activities to help prevent disrupt and prosecute criminal groups benefiting from human traff icking in all its iorms. Personnel from industry and
government and non-governmen t agencies attended and provided positive feedback on the value of the event and the closer engagement between agencies and the AFP that it generated. The event resulted 1n the A FP identifying a
calendar of stakeholder engagement activities across Australia, with the first held in Brisbane on 29 June 2011 and the rema inder to be carried out in the 2011-1 2 financial year. Th ese events will form the basis for a human
trafficking community across Australia that will meet regularly . An ami-trafficking community compendium providing information on the investiga1ive and/or victim support capabilities of industry and government and non-government organisations is currently being drafted.
Three police personnel from Queensland , Victoria and New South Wales and 1 7 AFP personnel successfully completed the Human Traffi cking Investigations Program . Complementing this program was the publication of an AFP aide memoire and practical guide to assist investigators and partner agencies with human traffrcki ng investigations .

Initiatives and outputs
During 2010-11 the Intelligence function achieved a number of key outputs including an internal audit of the delivery of intelligence services. As a result of this audit a service delivery model was implemented that better reflected the needs of the Intelligence function's clients. Headquarters Intelligence structures were realigned to 'Tlore effect ively integrate international and domestic intelligence with the creation of the Transnational Intelligence Ope rations (TIO) area. TIO monitors intelligence flows across the A FP to ensure convergences across crime types are identified and actioned. TIO has enhanced the function's support to the
AFP's International Network and operations. and also administers the Target Evaluation Prioritisation Index to effectively identify targets for inclusion in the Australian Crime Commission's National criminal target report.
In line with operational priorities the Intelligence function continued to provide tactical intelligence. operational intel ligence and strategic intelligence. lhe Intelligence function's resource flexibility

74 II CHAPTER 04: PERFORMANCE DETAILS
Biometrics
A number of initiatives have been undertaken to increase capacity and improve the biometrics capability of the AFP :
" In January 2011 the AFP signed the INTERPOL Charter to gain access to the INTERPOL DNA database. This allows Australian law enforcement agencies to search unidentif ied DNA profiles internationally through the National Central Bureau in Canberra.
" In March and April 2011 latent fingerprints from unsolved serious crimes in Canada. the l lnited Kingdom and the U nited States of America were searched against the Nationa l Automated Fingerprint Identification System as a pilot to establishing an international fingerprint exchange framewor k. hosted by the
A FP. The pilot has occurred in conjunction with CrimTrac and resulted in one identification of a latent fingerpr int from a Canad ian unso lved serious violent crime.
" Fo rensic and Data Centres represented the AFP on the Crimes Act Part 1 D Statutory Review (which concluded on 30 June 20 1 0). The revised legislation is currently being drafted and contains significant improvements such as a statutory basis for international exchange of DNA profiles. as well as important procedural simplifications. It is proposed the legislat ion will go before parliament in the spring session of 20 11.
" Forensic and Data Centres is leading the re-establishment of the Commonwea lth convicted offender backcapture program and has engaged other Commonwea lth agencies through Heads of Commonwealth Operational Law En forcement Agencies (H OCOLEA) to further broaden the scope of collection and effectiveness of this regime. The initia l meeting of the HOCOLEA D NA Working Group occurred in June 20 11 .
" The Biological Crim inalistics team is contributing to the nationa l implementation of an enhanced DNA ana lysis capability which will see a simultaneous move to enhanced DNA profiling technology nationally.
Chemical criminalistics
De mand for the expanding texti le damage and fibre examination capability for ma jor operations
has spread beyon d the ACT. In a Northern Te rritory Police murder investigation the exam inations were an integral part of the forensic evidence wh ich led to the defendant receiving a lif e sentence.
The C hemica l Criminalistics Team also continued to build its in-house gunshot residue exam ination capability. and the expertise was applied to a number of firearm shooting incidents in the ACT.
lhe team ma intained efforts to ensure that the highly recognised explosive residue analysis capability remained at the forefront of its field through ongoing operational support research and developme nt and an active commitment to national and international networks and committees. lhe team played a ma jor role on the organising com m ittee for the 1Oth Internat iona l Sympos ium on the Ana lysis and D etection of Exp losives, w hich was held in Canberra in
November 201 0. lhe sympos ium was a huge success for the AFP and the nationa l and international forensic explosives commun ity. The next symposi um will be held in 20 13. with an A FP Forensic and Data Centres membe r now
holding the position of Cha ir of the Internat ional Committee for t he symposium.
The team 's commitment to professional development and training continued this period. with ongoing support provided to the delivery of forensic sessions for multijurisdictional counter terrorism investigat ions training. upda ted training for Forensic Operations members in regional AFP offices. a range of training to the Iraqi Police Service Training program and internal training of team members .

related documents.
Ongo ing document exam ination se rvices continued to be provided to a number of key external stakeholders including the Aus tralian Defence Force 1nvestigative Service. Australian Taxation O ffice and Cen trelink.
The team 's comm itment to training for team membe rs and the delivery of external training continued over the year. w ith key highlights being the developmen t and successful delivery of two
new courses: Qua lity Assurance in Docume nt Examination (delivered in ll1ailand in August 201 0) and Tier 2 Docume nt Examination (delivered at the Jakarta Centre for Law
Enforcement Coope ration in March 201 1 ).
The team continued its comm itment to research and developmen t resultrng. for examp le, in a new paper analysis and compar ison capability.
Firearms identification and armo ury
The Firearms Identification and Armou ry Team collaborated with the Attorney-General's Departmen t to enhance legislation and control regarding importation of firearms, weapons and ammun ition.
In one such instance a firearm was found during
a national ope ration. lhe Firearms Identification and Armou ry Team recovered the serial number and traced the origin oNsho re. The team provided this forensic intellig ence to the New South Wales
Po lice Ballistic Branch. which linked the firearm to
a shooting incident that had previously occurred in New South Wales.
Electronic evidence
In February 20 1 1 the A FP Computer Forensic team was forma lly acknow ledged for having the first computer forensic laboratory in Australia to receive ISO 1 7025 accreditation through the
National Assoc iation of Testing Authorities .
The A FP Computer Fo rensic team has enhanced resources and improved the skills of AF P investigators to seize. handle and review electronic exhibits through the establishment of the Technical Investigator Competency program . To date mo re than 300 AFP investigators have
received training from Computer Forensic personnel in the examination and extraction of data from mob ile telephones and in review of electronically acquired data. lhis has significantly improved the time taken to process and provide such evidence to the courts.

Social inclusion
Workforce Diversity Strategy
In October 2010 the A FP established the Workforce D iversity Plan for attracting, recruiting, developing and retaining people from five groups:
" Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders (A&TS I)
" women
" people from culturally and linguistically diverse commun ities
" gay, lesbian, transsexual and transgender peop le
" peop le with disabilities.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait /slanders
The AFP continued to work towards mee:ing the target of increasing the A&TS I component of its workforce by 2. 7 per cent by 201 5. The AFP has a commitment to emp loy an add itional 200 A&TSI emp loyees by 2015 under the ALrstralian Employment Covenant established by the Council of Australian Governments (Nationa l Partnership Agreement on Indigenous Economic Participatio n).
A&TSI staff ing leve ls were 0. 7 3 per cent in June 201 0. The target increase of 1.4 per cent is based on a two-year period starting 1 July 2010. Additional recruitment during 201 0 -11 ensured that the AFP is progressing to meet the target during the next financial year.
New A&TSI employees since 1 July 20 10 include:
" 14 Directions Program trainees
" 3 A&TSI graduates
" 3 A&TSI cadets
" 2 A&TSI investigative assistant trainees.

People with disabilities
The AFP periodically reviews its policies, protocols, guidelines and practices to ensure the comp liance requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 are met. In October 2010 the AFP Workforce D iversity Plan was launched. This plan includes the AFP Disability Program and Strategy, which outlines specific initiati ves to support the recruitment and retention of people w ith disabil ity. The strategy also provides for greater education and awareness of the benefits of emp loying people with a disabil ity to be made available to all AFP emp loyees.
The Human Resources function is currently revising the AFP 201 0-12 Disability Program and Strategy. It w ill be replaced by the Disability Action Plan 2012- 14, which will be launched on Internat iona l Day of People with Disability on 3 December

The Wor kforce D iversity Team also liaises with external organisations such as the D iversity Council of Australia and the Australian Employers' Network on Disability. This ensures that the A FP understands contemporary diversity and disability issues. As a member of such organisations, the Workforce Diversity Team can provide training and presentations for staff on issues relating to discrimination within the workforce and on recruiting and working with employees w ith disabilities.

Leadersh ip and command training
In recent years the AFP has offered leadership development programs focused on the exercise of leadership skills at different levels, including the Tier 1 Leadership (Team Leadership) Prog ram and the Tier 2 (Organ sational Leadersh ip) Program. More than 300 participants have comp leted the Tier 1 Program . Jl.t present. the AFP is focusing on
100 //CHAPTER 05â‘ CORPORATE SERVICES
the deve lopm ent of an organisational leadership philosophy and framework through a partnership initiative between the Australian Institute of Police Management Learning and Development and Human Resources Strategy. This will be
the basis for all new leadership initiatives and will inform leadership activity at all levels of the organisation. As such. with the exception of the Tier 1 Leadership Program. leadership programs have not been offered in the second half of the financial year as they are unde r review and w ill be redeveloped in line with the philosophy statement.
Command training is delivered regularly through Command. Control and Coordination (C3) workshops and Incident Command and Control System (ICCS) workshops. These workshops are in high demand across the organisation and have also been delivered to a number of
our law enforcemen t partners offshore. The workshops focus on command theory and provide participants with an opportunity to practise and apply command skills in scenarios. The Incident Command System. from which the ICCS was originally developed, has been proven to be both internationally and locally effective for responding to all types of police and emergency incidents. The ICCS has been endorsed by the National Cou nter " Terrorism Commi ttee and, as such. provides a nationally consistent system for these types of incidents. The ongoing provision of command
training ensures AFP personnel are we ll placed to lead and participate in multijurisdictional and national command responses.
Enhancing health and wellbeing HR continued to implem ent service improvement initiat ives wh ich included:
" opening the AF P Headquarters Gymnasium - the gym quickly established a usage rate of 1 000 sign-ins per week

" establishing a new structure that comb ined Medical. Hea lth and Fitness, Wel lbeing Services. Occupational Health and Sa fety. Confidant Network and Recognition and Ceremon ial that increased the sharing of information and joint interventions to support members. Th is has been well received by the A FP and will continue to increase customer satisfaction through an integrated approach to hea lth. safety and we llbeing.
Strengthening professional standards In the reportino period the Prnfessi()nal Stanrl;:mis Integrity Assurance. Education and Training Team delivered training to more than 3700 AFP
members via face to face classroom training. The training included sessions on Ethics in Leade rship. Respectful Workplace and Professional Standards Integrity Awareness . To com plement this training. Professional Standards published three case studies relating to a range of more common misconduct issues. Although sanitised. the case studies are from actual events and included harassment in the workplace. inappropriate use of the AFP email system and alcohol-related issues.
Professional Standards works closely with Legal and Governance Coordination to ensure qua lity assurance using a risk-based approach to governance production. A number of Professional Standards instruments were published and modified during the reporting period including guidelines on integrity reporting, references and testimonials. conflict of interest and secondary employment. In addition, Professional Standards entered a head agreement with the Office of
Po lice Integrity, V ictoria.
In the reporting period the AFP received a total of 233 complaints that amounted to serious m isconduct defined by the Australian Federal Police Act 1979 as category 3 misconduct. This is a 3.3 per cent decrease on the previous year. Of these complaints 87 were made by members of the public, 129 were made by AFP appointees (not including the 1 0 AFP appointees who
self-reported) and 7 (3 per cent) were reported anonymously.
Enhancements to the adjudication process. including the formation of an Adjudication Secretariat and the appointment of mo re members to the Adjudication PaneL have resulted in effic iencies. During the reporting period there were 393 adjudications completed. This is a
28 1 per cent increase on the previous year.

ll~e framework encompasses:
" business planning
" risk management
" business continuity management
" a system of governance instruments
" internal avd it
" business performance and accountability.
Governance Coordination and Review
The AFP's Governance Instrument Framework includes key governance documents. such as national policies and guidelines and Commissioner's Orders.
The integrity of this framework is maintained by the Governance Coord ination and Review Team.
AFPLegal Ensuring the AFP has timely, accurate and appropriate legal support is the key priority for AFP Legal. The legal practice comprises 36 legal practitioners and four support staff. All the legal practitioners hold practising certificates and ope rate under the Commissioner's Charter of Independence when providing legal advice. The General Counsel leads the practice and it
is organised into five functiona l legal teams: Operational and Counter Terrorism. International Deployment Group. Commercial and Governance. Employment and Litigation. and Information Law.
D uring 201 0-11 an external legal consultant Beaton Resea rch and Consulting. conducted a strategic review of Legal. The consultant concluded that the practice structure and work practices were sound but made a number of recommendations to strengthen future performance. Over the first half of 2011 the team has been implementing the key recom mendations including regular reports to the Strategic Leade rsâ‘ Group. a new legal matters and knowledge management system and a focus on preventive legal practice.
AFP Legal directly supports the AFP's law enforcement operations across the major law enforcement functions and is focused on reinvigorating investigations. This support involves legal advice to assist the AFP's Executive and investigators in all phases of investigat ion and frequently extends to legal assistance during and after trial. For example. Legal provided direct support to Operation Rune (Securency case). including advice on investigative and evidence collection powers and the deployment of a lawyer during the critical arrest and interview phase . Extensive legal support has also been provided for peop le smugg ling matters.
The Legal team has continued its provision of dedicated services to ACT Policing and support to operations in the regional offices.
Legal also continued to make a significant contribution to the training of AFP officers. including Counter Terrorism state and federal officers. Fo r example. the team contributed to the review and deve lopment of major training materials for senior investigators. as well as drafted a Commonwealth model brief template for use by investigators.
Lega l has seen an increase in work since mid-20 1 0 as a result of the withdrawal of certain services of the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions.

Legal continues to deliver strong support to ope rational and ena bling functions in relation to commercia l and governance matters. Significant commercia l assistance in support of operational activities, including in relation to people smuggling and technical capab ility delivery, was provided. The team also gave commercial assistance in relation to a number of Program Spectrum informa tion and com m unications technology initiatives, the AFP television series and several significant construction and property matters, including for the A ustralian Institute of
Po lice Management. the National Headqua rters in the Edmund Ba rton Bu ilding and a new centre for the N auru Police Force.

The Legal team manages the AF P's panel of external lega l service providers and it also directly sources lega l counsel from the independent Ba r. D uring 20 1 0-11 the Legal team provided advice on approximately 3200 matters.
KEY COMMITTEES FRAMEWORK lhe A FP Key Committees Framework sets out the agency's key decision-m aking groups and
outlines their primary and specific responsibilities. membe rship. meeting frequency and accountabili ties.
The AFP's Key Committees Framework was last reviewed in 2008 when it was agreed that a framework reflect ing a tiered structure of strategic. governance and operational committees would best reflect the AF P's high-level committee structure. Since the 2008 review. a numbe r of signific ant changes have been m ade to the AFP's organisational structure and new committees have been established including the:
" Strategic Investment Committee
" International Policy Coordination Committee
" Researcl1 Committee .
There has also been an audit of the AFP's management of the implementation of new policy initia tives, conducted in 2010 -11 by the Australian National Audit Office (ANAO). The ANAO found that there is a lack of clarity around key elements of the comm itt ee structure. Accordingly. the Strategic Policy area has commenced a review of the framework which
includes updated definitions of the tiered structure of committees. W hile the framework below is based on the 2008 rev1ew, elements of this have been updated through the 201 0-11 reporting period.
Executive management
The executive management committee is the Strategic Leade rs' Group .
Strategic committees
The strategic committees address issues that correspond to the specific responsibilities of the Strategic Leaders' Group and are expected to provide regular and strategic information to the group.
The committees are the:
" Finance Committee and its subcommittee. the Pe rformance and Budget Mon itoring Committee
" Workforce Committee
" Audit Committee
" Secu rity Comm ittee
" Remuneration Comm ittee.
Operational committees
The operational comm itt ees were established by the Strategic Leaders' Group to facilitate senior ma nagersâ‘ ope rational awareness and prioritisa tion across the organisation as a whote without an undue emphas is on the priorities of any one function. The designation is also used for committees of such importance that they warrant this designation. The committees are the:
" Witness Protection Committee
" AFP National Operations Comm ittee
" National Occupational Health and Safety Management Comm ittee
" Investigations Adv isory Group .
DISCRETIONARY GRANTS Th e AFP adm inistered no discretionary grant
programs in 2010-1 1.
INSURANCE AND RISK MANAGEMENT The AFP embraces risk managemen t as an integral pa rt of its business and has realigned
its risk management governance to reflect the International Standard for Risk Manageme nt AS/NZS ISO 31 000:2009.
The AFP assesses risk as part of the procurement and contract life cycle and. as such. has policies and procedures for the managemen t of insurance and risk which are embedded in AFP business " planning practices.
11 0 //CH APTER 06 GOVERNANC E AND ACCOUNTABI LITY
The AFP also focuses on specific areas of risk. including occupational health and safety. fraud control and financial and commercial practices. and conducts risk assessments for all large procurement activities.
Du ring the reporting period the Strategic Risk Man agemen t Team was expanded and restructured to reflect policy and imp lementation stream s. Th ese streams continued to enhance A FP risk management policy and deliver AFP " specific risk and business continuity management training and awa reness sessions. The AFP has business continuity plans in place for each of its key sites across A uslrCIIiCI Clnd Le:sLir1y fur llrese sites occurs every six months with a focus on three key scenarios: loss of infrastructure. loss of information and communications technology and
loss of people.
Disaster recovery plans are also in place for the crucial information and communications technology services that support AFP operations and. in the event of an influenza pa ndemic. business continuity is planned for and managed in a whole of-governm ent context in line with the requ irements of the Departmen t of the Prime
M inister and Cabinet.
Comcover insurance arrangements are also key to the A FP's risk m itigation strategies for managing financial risk. Th ey provide the AFP w ith a range o; insurance services for:
" public and professional indemnity liability
" property loss and business continuity
" AFP-owned motor vehicles in Australia and overseas
" short-term overseas travel that encompasses both medical emergencies and personal effects .
The AFP again participated in the annual Comcover Risk Management Benchmarking Survey. The AFP improved its overall score from the 201 0 results. reflected in the 6.3 per cent discount to the AFP's Comcover insurance prem ium.
FRAUD CONTROL AND
ANTI-CORRUPTION PLAN To manage the risk of fraud and corruption across the AFP all national managers. man agers and coordinators maintain controls and implement the actions contained in the Fraud Co ntrol and Anti " corruption Plan.
In accordance with the requirements of the new ly revised Commo nwealth fraud control guidelines 2011. the AFP is in the process of developing the Fraud control and anti-corruption plan 20 11-73. which will supersede the 2009-11 version.
lhe new plan w11l continue to address fraud and corruption risks faced by the agency and ensure that risk treatments are continually monitored and assessed for their effectiveness.
Fraud control risks are reviewed on a quarterly basis and progress on the plan's implementation is reported to the AFP Audit Committee and the Australian Attorney-General's De partment each year throughout its life cycle.
INTERNAL AUDIT Internal audit De livery of the AFP Executive-endorsed annual Internal Audit Program w as through a mix of in-house and outsourced resources. In 201 0-11 the AFP Audit Committee considered 26 internal audit reports and met quarterly. The annual Audit
Program was informed by risk assessments which identified the AFP's most significant potential vulnerabilities. The implementation of internal audit and relevant Australian National Audit Office recommendations were allocated to AFP business units by the Audit Committee and subsequently monitored through regular implementation reporting to the Audit Committee .

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Minister for Home Affairs
Report on the Fimmcial Statem ents
I hl'lve audited the accompanying financil'l l statements of the Aus tralinn Fecleml Police for the year ended 30 June 201 1, which comprise: a Statement by the Com missioner and Chief Financial Of1iccr; Statement of Comprehensive Income; Balance Sheet; Statement of Changes in Equity; Cash Flow Statement; Schedule of Conunitments; Schedule of Contingencies; Schedule of Asset Additions; Schedule of Admin istered Items and Notes comprising a Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and other explanatory infom1ation.
Commissimrer's Responsibility for the Fimmcial Statements
The Australian Federal Police's Commissioner is r ~ponsible lor the preparation of financia l statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the Finance Min.istcr's Orders made under the Financial Managame111 and Accowuahilizv Acl 1997, including the Australian Accounting Standards, and tl)r such interna l control as the Commissioner determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial statements that are fiâ‘ee fiâ‘om material misstatement , whether due to 11-aud or error .
Auditor's Re.,prmslbility
My responsibility is to express an opinion on the t1nancial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audit in uccorc.lance \Vith lhe Australian National Audit Oltlce Aud itin g Standards, which incorporate the Australian Auditing Standards. These auditing standards requi r ~ that I comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and pcrtom1 the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the fmancial statements arc !Tee fiâ‘om material misstatement.
An audit involves perfom1ing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement. including the assessment or the risks of material misstatement of the linancial statements, whether due to fiâ‘ aud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Australian Federal
Police's preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropliate in the circumstances, but not tor the purpose of expressing
policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Australian Federal Police's Commissioner, as well as evaluuting the overall presentation of the tinancial statements.

ln conducting my audit, I have followed the independence require ments of the Austrnlian National Aud it Office, which incorporate the requirement s of the Australian accounting profession.
Opinion
In my opinion, the financial state ments of the 1\ustrolinn Fcdcrul Police:
(a) have been prepared in accordance with the Finance Minister's Orders made under the Financial Managemell/ and Arcoumahili~v Acl /997. including the Australian Accow1ting Standards: and
(b) give a true and fair view of the matters required by the Finance Minister's Orders including the Australian Federal Police's financial position as at 30 June 2011 and of its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended.
R eport on O ther Legal and R egulatory R equirem ents
As described in note 20 to the financial statements, the Australian Federal Police has recently become aware there is an increased risk of a breach of section ll3 of the Constitution where payments arc made !Tom special appropriations and special accounts in circumstances where the payments do not accord with conditions included in thl) relevant legisla tion, and has advised that these circumst:mccs will be investigated .
