The Royal Commission on Antisemitism and Social Cohesion’s interim report has made 14 recommendations in total, although five of them remain confidential. Amongst other things, royal commissioner Virginia Bell examined NSW Police’s response to a request from the volunteer Jewish-led Community Security Group in November 2025 for a police presence at the upcoming Hannukah celebrations at Bondi Beach. The CSG warned that a terrorist attack against the Jewish community was likely; police officers were instructed to send a "car crew or two" to Bondi on 14 December but were told that they did not need to stay for the whole event. NSW Premier Chris Minns and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese have stated that all recommendations in the interim report will be implemented in full.
