The New Brunswick Police Commission may not proceed with a professional conduct review of the Saint John Police Force's handling of the Richard Oland homicide investigation.

And a review of the force's involvement in the jury selection process for Dennis Oland's murder retrial, which led to a mistrial being declared, will not proceed.

The independent provincial policing oversight body decided to review all prior decisions related to the Oland investigation and plans to discuss the matter further at an upcoming meeting, executive director Jennifer Smith told CBC News on Monday.

"We are taking the appropriate steps, which will include engaging in discussions with the Saint John Police Force and the Saint John Board of Police Commissioners as to their current position on the original request [for the investigation review], what actions they have taken to address their handling of complex investigations, and plan for a way forward," said Smith.
