The OIPRD is a civilian body operating under Attorney General of Ontario with powers invested through Public Inquiries Act to investigate complaints about municipal police forces and the Ontario Provincial Police.[1]

Career

Prior to his current position, McNeilly served in legal roles in the provinces of Manitoba and Ontario. He was Executive Director of Legal Aid Manitoba 1999-2008, Chair of the Board of Inquiry for the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal 1995-1999, Justice of the Peace (Ontario), and Deputy Provincial Judge (Ontario).[1]

Office of the Independent Police Review Director

McNeilly's role as Director of OIPRD began in 2008.[1][4] The National Post described the OIPRD as an "arm's-length civilian agency" operated under the Attorney General of Ontario.[4] As Office Director, McNeilly can order police investigations, searches, seizures, and can "subpoena documents and witnesses, including chiefs of police" under the Public Inquiries Act.[4]

He can recommend, but not order disciplinary action against officers or that police procedure be changed. Prior to the creation of the Office, complaints about police were "handled internally" by police departments.[4]

In its first six months the OIPRD handled 2,400 complaints.[4]

One of his largest and highest profile investigations was the review of police conduct during the 2010 G-20 Toronto summit in response to 300 complaints.[2]

McNeilly was the lead author on the OIPRD's 208-page report entitled "Broken Trust: Indigenous People and the Thunder Bay Police Service" which was released in December 2018. The report concluded that TBPS needed to "improve its relationship with Indigenous communities" and that it needs to "ensure that its investigations are timely, effective and non-discriminatory."[3]{{rp|195}}
