The police officer son of former NSW premier and ex-senator Kristina Keneally has been charged with fabricating false evidence following an investigation by the Law Enforcement Conduct Commission.
The LECC issued a statement on Tuesday acknowledging there had "been considerable discussion in the media" regarding an investigation it had conducted into Constable Daniel Keneally.
A NSW Police statement said a serving 24-year-old constable has been charged with fabricating false evidence with intent to mislead the judicial tribunal.
The LECC said it had investigated a matter concerning an alleged incident on February 24, 2021 and requested the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions review their brief of evidence.
The constable attached to the Central Metropolitan Region will appear at Downing Centre Local Court on November 17.
Police said the officer's employment status was under review.
The LECC said when the criminal proceedings were concluded it would provide a report to the NSW parliament and would not make any further comment on the matter.
