No govt apology yet over bugging scandal

Premier Mike Baird might apologise to victims of the NSW police bugging scandal - but they'll have to wait until he's seen all the information.

The upper house report has called on the premier to say sorry to people found to have been wrongly named on phone intercept warrants obtained by the NSW police internal affairs unit.

Mr Baird didn't rule out apologising.

"What we need to do now is to get all of the information," he said.

"The ombudsman's report is next, it is close to being finalised (and) I'm obviously waiting for that.

"Obviously at that point I'll have more to say."

Deputy Commissioner Nick Kaldas was one of more than 100 police officers allegedly spied on more than a decade ago as part of a covert internal corruption investigation.

The upper house report called for the NSW government to apologise to Mr Kaldas.

The ombudsman's investigation into the scandal is due in June.
