Crown Prosecutors. The main condition of their appointment is viewed below: Section 4(2A) – 'A Crown Prosecutor is to be appointed by the Governor for a term of 7 years or for such shorter term as may be necessary to ensure that the person's term of office extends to (but not beyond) the date on which the person reaches the age of 72 years. A Crown Prosecutor is eligible (if otherwise qualified) for reappointment.' At the moment, there are currently 124 crown prosecutors in NSW. Another role that exists within this, is that of a Senior Crown Prosecutor. This follows a similar process of appointment to that of the Crown Prosecutors, outlined in section 4A. Senior Crown Prosecutors have the same roles and responsibilities; however, they represent the Crown in the most serious and complex matters.

Cunneen appealed the initial decision of the Supreme Court, which went in ICAC's favor, to the NSW Court of Appeal. In Cunneen v ICAC, a 2:1 majority of the NSW Court of Appeal held, inter alia, that the impugned conduct was not corrupt conduct as stipulated in s 8(2) of the Independent Commission Against Corruption Act 1988 (NSW) (‘ICAC Act’). In addition, the Court also ruled that ICAC's decision to hold such a public inquiry was unreasonable. ICAC appealed the Supreme Court's decision to the High Court, given the significance of this decision on future investigations. On 15 April 2015, via a 4:1 majority the High Court held
