On April 1, 2024, the Community Safety and Policing Act, 2019 (CSPA) came into force and the Police Services Act (PSA) was repealed.

- Inspectorate of Policing
- Law Enforcement Complaints Agency
- Ontario Police Arbitration and Adjudication Commission
The OCPC continues to work diligently on its adjudicative and investigative caseloads and is making adjustments in accordance with the CSPA and Ontario Regulation 125/24 (Transitional Matters) under the CSPA.
