The government should add panel members to its recently announced royal commission into antisemitism and social cohesion to be led by former high court justice Virgina Bell, former Labor MP Mike Kelly says.
Speaking to Sky News on Friday, Kelly recommended elevating Dennis Richardson, who is already contributing to the proceedings through his review of the intelligence services, to the role of royal commission panel member.
“The government and the royal commissioner herself could look at enlisting extra support on that panel,” Kelly said, “Not withstanding [Virginia Bell’s] legal expertise, she doesn’t have the sort of the death of experience and knowledge of the specific areas related to this Bondi incident.”

Thirty fires remain active in Victoria on the morning on Friday, January 9, according to Emergency Victoria Management.
The fire west of Walwa, which Forest Fire Management Victoria chief fire officer Chris Hardman said was more than 20,000 hectares and actively burning, had caused between 12,000 and 16,000 hectares of pine plantation destruction, with more assets at risk.
No residential property loss had been confirmed as of 10.30am Friday, when authorities held a media briefing.
Premier Jacinta Allan spoke of "more strong winds to come" as the leading concern for the day, as "winds will change the direction of the fire and push those fires potentially closer to homes, closer to properties and closer to communities".
